Temple

1 Nephi 18:3

"And I, Nephi, did go into the mount oft, and I did pray oft unto the Lord; wherefore the Lord showed unto me great things."

The mount here is similar to a temple. Nephi went to the Temple often so he could be closer to God. He prayed often and the Lord revealed things to him. When we go to the Temple often and serve the Lord there, and pour our hearts out in prayer, He will show us things. It may take several times, and what is 'shown' might be extremely simple, such as a good or peaceful feeling. I know whenever I go to the temple and take time to pray earnestly to the Lord I always feel peace and love. I always feel that my Heavenly Father knows me and loves me.
