Scripture Reading



Julia is learning about the scriptures this year in Primary. So for FHE a few weeks ago we made a committment as a family to read the scriptures together every night. We have been perfect for 2 weeks and I can tell its made a difference. We read right before Julia goes to bed each night and we are reading the comic book version so Julia can look at the pictures. When we first started she wanted to turn the pages and was distracted easily. Now she looks forward each night to reading and learning who each person is in the scriptures.

Just the other night before we began to read Christian was bawling and we couldn't get him to settle down and Julia was just really cranky and whiny. But when we started to read the scriptures all became very quiet and calm. Christian stopped crying and Julia stopped and really listened to the story that night. The scriptures are POWERFUL and it has brought the Spirit into our home.
