One of the most
incredible things you could ever do is to have every single missionary, from
Taos NM to Fabens TX, set everything aside to read the Book of Mormon in 16
hours, and the power that comes is more than words can describe.
I always knew that
the Book of Mormon was true and I have had so many opportunities to ask
Heavenly Father if it is, and there has always been an incredible spirit, but
nothing can even begin to compare to the spirit when you get to read all day.
As we were reading we were asked to underline every reference of Jesus Christ
and every reference of the Atonement, and the most amazing thing was how often
our Savior is mentioned and how often the sacrifice He made for me and for you
is talked about. I was able to come to know Him more as I read. I was able to
see His character more and come to understand the love He and our Father have
for us.
I know that the
Book of Mormon truly Testifies of our Savior in every way. If we want to know
Him, if we want to understand why He did what He did, or feel of His love, read
the Book of Mormon. The Book of Mormon was written for me and for you. For our
day. It's to help us know the plan that Our Father has. It's to help us have
true joy and true peace in a world where those things aren't always there. Our
Savior and Father want us to know them. They want us to rely on them and on the
glorious gift of the Atonement that we have been given.
I know without a
shadow of a doubt that the Book of Mormon is His word. Read it. Study it.
Ponder it. And see your Father in Heaven speak to you through it.
Love ya!!

in a zone of Elders when during emailing they tell you to close your eyes, put
your arms out straight, slowly touch your pinky to your nose and then are amazed
when you can do it, cause they can't. Haha
