You Can Read Anywhere

Over the past few months, I've found myself all over the place geographically.  It doesn't matter where I go, I've tried to take the scriptures with me.  They have been a source of comfort and strength and I've watched it be the same for my family and others.  When we make the commitment to daily study it doesn't matter where we are....we can bring God into our lives if we choose.

In North Georgia at Scout camp we read under the cover of the stars.
While in NYC, we read in the subway, our studio apartment (so close to the Empire State Building), hotel room, and even the hospital.

Our family finished the Book of Mormon and are starting again.  The promise in Moroni 10:3-5 is real.  When we seek and ask, he will remind us of the truth.

Moroni 10: 3-5

3.  Behold, I would exhort you that when ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them, that ye would remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the creation of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder it... 
4.  And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true ; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power... 
5.  And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things.

I testify that this is true.  Daily scripture study makes a difference!  And you can read and study anywhere!
