Quick as a Turtle

To say the absolute least... I've been working my way through the Book Of Mormon. It ain't easy. I find myself lucky to have the study guide at my side every morning and night as I attempt to understand everything I read instead of just pretending to understand (which I can honestly say I used to do.) 

It's taken me a while to get through second Nephi... but I just don't like moving ahead until I fully understand what's going on. I feel absolutely useless when I'm lost. I love the scriptures no matter what... but understanding them makes me love them a hundred times more :-)

As I was reading this morning I realized that for the next three or four hours I'm legitimately on a spiritual high. It's fun to ride the jolly train, and that train is a whole lot... jollier after reading the scriptures. 

True story.
