Knowledge that the Book of Mormon is Another Testament of Jesus Christ

I am so grateful for the blessings that the Book of Mormon brings to my life daily.  As I try to read it each day, it brings strength,  peace and joy to my life.

I know that it is truly another testament of Jesus Christ, and that it goes hand in hand with the Bible.  I know that the Book of Mormon was translated by the prophet Joseph Smith, and that no human being could have written this book without God's help.   I testify that the Book of Mormon is true and by reading it, it will bring each of us closer to Jesus Christ.   I know this because I have read it and tested out the promise in Moroni 10: 4-5.  "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 of the Holy Ghost.  And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things."

Today and every day, I thank my Heavenly Father for the gift of the Book of Mormon in my life.  It is a gift that continues to make my life better every day, and I am so grateful for that precious treasure.
