Sometimes we get ourselves into trials and tribulations, get ourselves into "bondage" because of our not listening to the prophets and God's words. We don't obey Him. We don't do the things we should be doing. We've been asked to pray continuously, study and ponder the scriptures, listen and obey the Holy Ghost, and a bunch of other things. But sometimes we don't do those things and may actually refuse to do them. We can get ourselves into "bondage" as the people of Limhi did in Chapter 7 when they didn't listen to the prophet they had.
We have to suffer the consequences of such an action. However, we can "lift up [our] heads, and rejoice, and put [our[ trust in God" (19). We can repent and turn ourselves back to God. We can rejoice in the power of the Atonement and the power we have to be clean once more.
