Sacred Scriptures

One of the first things I try to do at the start of day is to study the Holy Scriptures.

I believe that it is important we read them as they contain instructions for us to follow in order to be better individuals.

As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, the Scriptures I have access to are the Holy Bible, the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price.

I am grateful today for the Scriptures as they are an inspiration, a guide, a help, and a comfort to me. I can read of the mistakes others have made and learn from them. I can read of the blessings imparted to those who followed the Commandments. And, as I study them, I can feel the love of the Savior.

No matter what religious creed you practice, you are bound to have a set of scriptures you use. I encourage you to read in them each day and live them to the best of your capabilities. Your life will be smoother. It does not mean you will not have problems, but you will have the strength to live through them.

So, pick up that book you call Scriptures; dive into it; learn from it; and share it with those whom you love.
