Better than science fiction; better than time travel.
Our human hearts seek eternity and wisdom
God answers with a brilliant pillar of light.
His glory shines upon His prophets, seers, revelators.
In Zedekiah’s day, Lehi saw the heavens open.
In 1820, Joseph Smith beheld two personages
In a pillar of
light.
God speaks to men; they hear His voice and His son
Jehovah, the
premortal Christ, shows prophets a book.
God commands these prophets to write and speak.
They obeyed in ancient days when
His will was to be
revealed.
Today prophets write and speak His words,
timely guidance for
a troubled world.
The Book of Mormon with the prophet Nephi
writing, begins
with his own introduction.
Nephi testifies that he alone wrote it and it’s true.
His father, the prophet Lehi, saw a bright vision and
dreamed dreams to
guide his family.
Nephi’s desire was to know the mysteries of God
He prayed and his heart was soft and open.
The Lord chose him, over rebelling brothers to
write His story, and the story in the Book of Mormon.
We give thanks that he was born of goodly parents
and obeyed God’s
commandments.
Because now truth is again on earth, a burst of light.
God’s mercy is over all those He hath chosen because
of their faith, enabling them to shine a beacon of light,
helping a darkened world find it's way.
Prophets of old saw our day.
The Book of Mormon was gathered from many prophet’s
writings, abridged
and condensed to speak to us.
Let us read, study and ponder the words found there
each day, that we
might have the light of revelation
to guide us in the
deserts of our own wilderness,
even cyberspace,
is my prayer.
