God wants to communicate with you
Enos describes kneeling in prayer through the day and into the night. His account turns from his own need for forgiveness to concern for his brethren and the preservation of the record.
Read and consider
Chapter 16, The Wrestle Before God, follows Enos 1. Chapter 4, The Tree of Life, offers another connection through Nephi’s desire to understand the vision his father had seen.
Quoted Book of Mormon
And my soul hungered; and I kneeled down before my Maker, and I cried unto him in mighty prayer and supplication for mine own soul; and all the day long did I cry unto him; yea, and when the night came I did still raise my voice high that it reached the heavens.
Enos 1:4
And I, Enos, knew that God could not lie; wherefore, my guilt was swept away.
Enos 1:6
