Take time to ponder

Once when we arrived I immediately noticed that on the calm, flat surface of the sea was one large rough patch. It was very interesting and I rushed to the edge of the promenade to see what it was. I stared at it for a long time but couldn’t make out what it was. It was slowly moving towards the Waterfront. Eventually, I noticed that it was a large pod of dolphins.

I thought how sometimes when we study the scriptures we need to ponder them a long time in order to see the treasures in them and really understand them. Jesus said: "...ponder upon the things which I have said, and ask of the Father, in my name, that ye may understand..." (3 Nephi 17: 3). When Nephi pondered his father's vision, he also saw a vision (1 Nephi 11: 1).
