Simple and True

I read them. They console me and bring me comfort. My scriptures are a blessing to have. Especially during heart aches and rough times. They bring in the sweet during the bitter. I know my Heavenly Father is talking to me, when I am reading my scriptures. Like when he tells me to "fear not" and to "come unto him." He answers my prayers through scripture. He gives me guidance through scripture. He wipes away my tears through scripture. Sometimes, I feel like I truly come to understand and know my Heavenly Father, when I read my scriptures.
I have read and prayed for myself to know that the Book of Mormon is true. I have gotten my answer. I remember feeling so warm and peaceful inside. As I've continued to read this precious book, cover to cover, I have grown to love it, more and more.
There's a feeling I get through reading my scriptures, that I never feel reading any other book. I feel peace. I feel safe. It's fullness of truth brings light into my life.
I love them. They are mine and they are so precious to me.
