Quite a few years ago when I was struggling to get through college as a single parent and work a full time job, and juggle a church calling..the scriptures became my lifeline. Most particular the BoM. I learned that the struggles they encountered were not so very different from my own..and the solutions they used worked for me. I found reading of the battles and wars that my ability to handle adversity changed as I applied principles say..Captain Moroni told of. Frankly..I was amazed. Now I have gone on to using the entire scriptures for solutions to problems or just to find a scenario that is much like my own, I can relate too. Of course my first love is the BoM for it's simplicity.
Just thought I would share that.
