2 Nephi 29


I feel like growing up in the Church I have never had a sense of wonder about there being a second witness to the Bible. But really, what an amazing thing that is. To be assured that the God we love is really the God we think we know. That it is all true. That we have a Savior, and a God in the Heaven who knows us and hears our pleas. That what we have committed our lives too is real and right. What a blessing!

I was also really touched by God’s promise to Abraham to remember his seed forever. That must have been such a comforting and overwhelming promise. And  it makes me feel safe and loved to feel connected not only to that promise, but to all of Abrahams seed. I feel like a relative for the first time, to those ancient prophets.
