Testimony of the Book of Mormon

So I recently finished reading the Book of Mormon.  This time I did something different though...I looked up every single cross reference listed (that means if it said TG Holy Ghost I didn't look that up...that felt like too much to do, but every verse that was mentioned I looked up:).  I don't remember when I started reading it this way, but I know that it took me a very long time to get through it.  However, it was a fun way to read and I did learn things and make new connections!!!:)

I know that the Book of Mormon is amazing...I've read it every day now for over 10 years and I know that it has made me a better person.  I remember in high school when I started reading it every day...the Lord hit me hard with that one...a FHE lesson from my mom, seminary lessons, YM/YW reading challenge, and a story in the Ensign (or maybe the New Era).  And even though my life has changed reading the Book of Mormon every day has not.

I remember telling a Bishop once that I had a testimony of the church (that it was rock solid) and that I knew that it would stay that way as long as I studied the scriptures and prayed every day!!!:)  And I know that my testimony is still strong for doing those things.  I know that the Book of Mormon is the word of God!!:)  In the last 10 years I have done some interesting studies of the Book of Mormon and I know that it is a true book; I know that it contains personal revelation and that revelation can change based on my preparedness to receive it!!:)  The gospel really is line upon line!!:)  I am thankful to have the Book of Mormon in my life!
