A Young Man Who Was Less Than Sure of Himself

Moses 6 : 31


When the prophet Enoch was called, he wondered why and said, "I ... am but a lad, and all the people hate me; for I am slow of speech" (Moses 6:31). Yet Enoch knew that in responding to God the test is not our capability but our availability. Enoch kept the commandments and trusted in the Lord's vision of his possibilities, going on to become the builder of the greatest city of all time. The only time in all of human history when a whole people's righteousness did not relapse was in the City of Enoch. And it all began with a young man who was less than sure of himself.

Your personal possibilities, not for status and position but for service to God and mankind, are immense, if you will but trust the Lord to lead you from what you are to what you have the power to become.

- Elder Neal A. Maxwell, New Era, May 1981
