I've been not only reading the Book of Mormon this year, but I've been taking notes on every single verse of the chapters. It is amazing how much more I'm learning. Taking notes makes me concentrate on what I'm actually reading. I'm not just reading words. It has been such an incredible experience. I believe in this day and age we need to build our testimonies by seeking every opportunity to learn more about Jesus Christ and His gospel.
Elder Ronald A. Rasband said: "It is important to remember the powerful counsel found in Deuteronomy, "Keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of they life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons' sons." (and daughters). Generations are affected by the choices we make. Share your testimony with your family; encourage them to remember how they felt when they recognized the Spirit in their lives and to record those feelings in journals and personal histories so that their own words may, when needed, bring to their remembrance how good the Lord has been to them."
I love the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I know it is true! I am so grateful to a mother who taught the gospel by word and example and who loved me, and guided me throughout my life.
