B of M

Dad and I just finished reading the Book of Mormon and now started reading it again. I've talked dad into a 7:00 am wakeup call for reading and praying every morning. He has been a real trooper. This morning we read the 5th chapter of 1 Nephi. We were struck by the importance of getting the plates of brass from Laban, even having the Lord instruct Nephi to kill for them. This is important for all of us to remember, that these scriptures were the only way that Lehi could preserve a testimony of the truth within himself and his children for generations to come. A testimony encourages obedience to the commandments and a desire to KNOW the Lord.
"And we had obtained the records which the Lord had commanded us, and searched them and found that they were desirable; yea, even of great worth unto us, insomuch that we could preserve the commandments of the Lord unto our CHILDREN.
Wherefore, it was wisdom in the lord that we should carry them with us, as we journeyed in the wilderness towards the land of promise."
This world is the wilderness for us in our day. The land of promise is a real, honest relationship with the Lord!
Please seek the Lord personally and as a family through scripture study.
