the book of mormon.


i finished this wonderful book again last weekend. my testimony grows each and every time i read it. i am so grateful for the prophet joseph smith and all of the others who sacrificed so much in order to bring us the book of mormon. it truly was written for us. i just participated in a choir that performed the cantata "from cumorah's hill" a few times over the last couple weeks. this piece, written by steven kapp perry with words by brad wilcox, was all about the book of mormon and how we can apply it to our lives because it is most definitely written for our day. learning and performing this cantata had a profound influence on my reading and studying of the book of mormon the last few months. the messages and truths i was singing about through song and the spirit i felt while rehearsing and performing testified more to me of the truthfulness of this book. i am so grateful for the book of mormon and the guidance and peace that it can give. all we need to do is open it and have a sincere desire to learn from it and it will work it's magic. i'm grateful for this form of media that is used as a way for our loving heavenly father to communicate to us. how blessed we are to have it.
