Just Keep Reading, Pt. 2

Scripture Reading Struggles...


    Alright, so my last post was about my perspective on the what the scriptures are.
Now, consider this quote.
"The iron rod is the word of God. The scriptures, the words of the living prophets, and the gift of the Holy Ghost are powerful in their ability to keep us safe. Let us hold fast to the words of the prophets. Let us hold fast to the iron rod."
If we aren't reading the scriptures, that means that we're not holding on the iron rod, right? 
We're floating around out in the mists of darkness trying to feel our way. 
And then we wonder why we have such a hard time when it hits the fan............


So what are some things that keep us from reading the scriptures?
  1. They're boring.
  2. No time.
  3. Don't understand them.
  4. Don't see how they can help.
We weren't told this life was going to be a walk in the park.
A matter of fact, why would we even begin to think that?
This life is a test! Tests aren't easy! If they were, we would learn nothing!

Just keep reading!


Comment and let me know if there is more!
