Whenever I feel like this, I read through Alma chapter five and prayerfully study and reassess my spirituality.

I really like verses 14 and 26. The entire chapter is an excellent introspection passage. It took me a long time to understand and feel verse 26 in my life.

Alma 5

Nephi's Psalm is another very heartfelt and enlightening passage:

2 Nephi 4
