Another Feast

Yesterday, our family enjoyed another feast! We have been reading The Book of Mormon every morning this year and studying from the Come, Follow Me manual. At the beginning of November we added a couple of extra chapters each week so we could finish by the end of the month (as we love to read from our daily Christmas book in December). Yesterday we completed our goal and finished The Book of Mormon again! To celebrate our spiritual feast we ordered a temporal feast from Mumbai Masala Grill.

I LOVE The Book of Mormon! Just like the Old and New Testaments it is another testament of Jesus Christ and his gospel. Reading it helps me feel the love of my Savior for me and my family more deeply. Spoiler alert- this book does not have a happy ending. I usually prefer books with a happy ending, but this one ends with the complete destruction of the Nephite people as well as the Jaredite people. This is heartbreaking to me, but I believe this book was written for our day- that we might learn from history so we aren't doomed to repeat it, and if we do that we can have a very happy ending indeed!

We have also started memorizing scriptures as a family. Our scripture this month is from 2 Nephi 31:20, "Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life."

If you would like to read The Book of Mormon, I would love to send you a copy! Just let me know!
