Happy New Year! Alma 2-4

Ring in the New Year by resolving to read the Book of Mormon EVERY day this year and stay on track to finish by May.  (You should be through Alma 4--See Saturday's post for Tuesday's reading assignment)

Elder Bednar: THE SCRIPTURES ARE A RESERVOIR OF LIVING WATER
“The scriptures contain the words of Christ and are a reservoir of living water to which we have ready access and from which we can drink deeply and long. …
“Through normal activity each day, you and I lose a substantial amount of the water that constitutes so much of our physical bodies. Thirst is a demand by the cells of the body for water, and the water in our bodies must be replenished daily. It frankly does not make sense to occasionally ‘fill up’ with water, with long periods of dehydration in between. The same thing is true spiritually. Spiritual thirst is a need for living water. A constant flow of living water is far superior to sporadic sipping” (“A Reservoir of Living Water” [Church Educational System fireside, Feb. 4, 2007], 1, 7, broadcast.lds.org).
