Alma 20

(April 1, 2010)
It is easy to understand the frustration that Aaron, Omner, and Himni had with Ammon when he began boasting in his God.  Aaron et. al., as is clearly described by the scriptures, fell among a more hardened people.  There is no intimation that they were any less worthy as men or missionaries, yet while Ammon became friends with the king and had numerous miraculous experiences, Aaron and his brothers were tormented and imprisoned.  They would exercise patience in their afflictions, but you wonder if Aaron was actually thinking ‘would you be quiet, you got the easy area to proselyte!’
