Project 52

Week 9
My blessing that I can't stop thinking about has to be the scriptures. I have really challenged myself this year to really understand them. I have been good about reading them but this year I have really started to study them. I already feel blessed because of it.
We as a family has started faithfully reading together every morning. Sure we have read before but it was always at the last minute read a few verses before family prayer or at breakfast while everyone eating. But, we finally have all got on board and are really doing good! It really amazes me how Cody & Kelsey can pronounce those very hard words and they are really improving on reading as well. I count this for their 15 min. reading time for school. I feel like our family has gotten stronger because of our great efforts. And, my day seems to go a little smoother. We started in January and I pray that we will keep this going in our house.

What if?

I read this on someones blog and had to share.

Wonder what would happen if we treated our Book of Mormon like we treat our cell phones?

What if we carried it around in our purse or pocket?
What if we turned back to get it if we forgot it?
What if we flipped through it several times a day?
What if we spent an hour or more using it everyday?
What if we used it to receive messages from the text?
What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?
What if we gave it to our kids as gifts?
What if we used it as we traveled?
What if we used it in case of an emergency?

Where is your Book of Mormon?

Unlike our cell phones:
One plan fits all.
Unlimited usage. No roaming fees.
You always have reception.
You don't have to buy batteries.
No weak signals AND
We don't ever have to worry about our Book of Mormon being disconnected because our Savior already paid the bill!

So, here is the question for the day-
Have you used your cell phone today? Have you read your scriptures yet?
I loved this and just wanted to share it with everyone. I have had days where I have forgot my phone or have not charged it and felt lost without it. I know reading the word of God helps me everyday.
Hope everyone had a great Monday!
