1 Nephi 1:14

And it came to pass that when my father had read and seen many great and marvelous things, he did exclaim many things unto the Lord; such as: Great and marvelous are thy works, O Lord God Almighty! Thy throne is high in the heavens, and thy power, and goodness, and mercy are over all the inhabitants of the earth; and, because thou art merciful, thou wilt not suffer those who come unto thee that they shall perish!
In this verse Lehi praises God. I’m especially interested in the end of the verse, the fact that the kingdom of God is open to literally anybody willing to conform his or her lives to the way Father would.

You know it offers me some comfort that our Heavenly Father doesn't just speak to his prophets. That ANY ONE can recive answer to prayer if he is humble and asks sincerely.
