Search the Scriptures


There is so much that we do not understand and so much that we never can understand in this life but it is nice to know that we can dive into at least a part of the mysteries through the scriptures. There are many things we can learn but one way that I feel as though the scriptures bring wisdom is an ability to better understand and sympathize with other people. It is really hard to understand a person’s motives and the choices they make when we do not know what all is happening in their lives. God knows though and He can help us understand as well. When we apply the scriptures we become more like Christ and more able to sympathize with other people. We also learn from people throughout the scriptures and learn not to judge those in the stories who have weak points. I love reading the scriptures and there is so much that can be learned from them no matter how many times you read them, especially in the Book of Mormon. I try to read the Book of Mormon at least once a year which I think is a good goal for all who want more understanding.
