When I have a question, why do I wait to ask God as a last resort? What can happen when I listen to all the other voices in the world? See what happened to Laman and Lemuel, the Zoramites, and King Noah when they listened to people instead of seeking answers from God.
Listening to others:
Zoramites consulting together – Alma 35:3
Nephi’s Brothers consulting together – 1 Nephi 15:1-9
King Noah listening to his priests – Mosiah 17:11-12
Listening to God:

Nephi building a boat, little by little – 1 Nephi 18:1-4
