Disclaimer: Okay, it seems to be Blogging feast or famine with me these days. We've been busy at our house this week with company, sick kids, and now I seem to have caught a cold. I'm blogging while my meds kick in {and I don't have my contacts in, either}, so please forgive me if I write anything alarming.
Last Christmas, I gave my Young Women a lesson on gifts. Gifts we can give to the Savior, gifts we can give to ourselves, and gifts we can give to our families. In preparing my talk, I found that if a person read 7 pages a day, they could have the entire standard works read within a year. I thought, "Someday, I'd really like to do that." Well, someday turned into THAT day, and I began to read.
I finished tonight! Finally a New Years resolution kept faithfully, every day {I wish I could say the same for my fitness goals:}. I have felt such blessings in my life as a result. I am so grateful that we have record of Prophets' voices, the Savior's deeds, and also the blessings of continued guidance from the Prophets of today.

Congratulations on finishing! :)
I hope you feel better soon!
That is awesome! What a wonderful resolution! That takes dedication to read 7 pages a day - but I'm sure there were many blessings you received because of it, in addition to feeling the Spirit more abundantly! You are an inspiration! Did you start with the OT or B of M?
Hey thanks. I started with the Book of Mormon & finished with the New Testament.
You are so awesome!!!!!!!!!
