I just wanted to report that I finished reading The Book of Mormon on Thursday, August 21, 2008. I started reading it on Sunday, July 13, 2008. So it did take me a little longer than 31 days. But I'm so grateful that I DID IT!
What a blessing The Book of Mormon can be to any who choose to partake. I love it. I love the joy and peace that I receive when I read it. I know it is a true book. It is another testament of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It testifies of him. It teaches us how to return to him. It teaches of the beautiful atonement and His love for us. It's words fill me with comfort and peace. I am so grateful for the promptings of The Holy Ghost, which led me to begin this challenge.
of Latter Day Saints. I know that it is the true gospel on the earth today. I know that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ appeared to young Joseph Smith after he prayed for direction as to which church he should join. This is what led to the restoration of Christ's church. I am grateful for the knowledge of The Plan of Salvation, and that I am a daughter of my Heavenly Father, and He loves me, He knows me and my greatest strengths and weaknesses. I know that being a wife and mother is a divine calling, and it is a calling that I treasure with all my heart. I know that families can be together for eternity. And although I am so very far from perfect, I know that through Jesus Christ and the atonement, and my own actions in striving to do my best and endure to the end, I can return to live with Him. This gospel brings me joy in it's purest form. And I am so blessed to have it in my life. I say these things in the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ, Amen.
