The holiday celebrations often bring families and friends together to partake of shared stories, one another’s company and usually… a great feast. When I think of the word ‘feast‘ I think of some of my favorite foods with their amazing flavors. I am so blessed that my mom was an excellent cook and taught me well. But unfortunately second and third helpings can disrupt my physical well being. I guess you can get too much of a good thing, at least when it comes to good food.
Feasting upon the words of Christ is sweet and savory and you can eat all you want… even if you feel full you can always take in more! I love the Holy Scriptures and the words of ancient and modern day leaders and prophets. One thing they all have in common is to testify of Jesus Christ and teach our Father’s plan. If we partake of this great feast we will be filled to the brim with everything good and wholesome!!!
Reading the scriptures can open that communication between you and your Father in Heaven as you seek to understand His will for you. He has preserved His written word and teachings from ancient times to the present day. Answers to life’s most complex problems can be found in the scriptures! Peace and strength will increase as we open our hearts and minds to the teachings of Jesus Christ and implement them into our lives.
2nd Nephi 31:20
“Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ. And endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: ye shall have eternal life.”
Feed Your Soul By Feasting On The Lord’s Words!!!
