Magic Messages

 O my sons, I would that ye should remember that these sayings are true, and also that these records are true. And behold, also the plates of Nephi, which contain the records and the sayings of our fathers from the time they left Jerusalem until now, and they are true; and we can know of their surety because we have them before our eyes.
 And now, my sons, I would that ye should remember to search them diligently, that ye may profit thereby; and I would that ye should keep the commandments of God, that ye may prosper in the land according to the promises which the Lord made unto our fathers.  
Mosiah 1:
Often we may read a verse or combined verses and glean what I call magic messages of insight.  I have highlighted two from these verses:  "we have them before our eyes", and "ye should remember to search them diligently".

  2. I have found by being in the Book of Mormon each day has helped over the years gain a greater love and appreciation for it. Also, by offering a prayer before studying a passage of the scripture I ask that my mind and heart be receptive to the spirit to help me understand what I should know from it.
