READ ON!!

Now's the time that many people slack just a little on their new year's resolutions.  I say "Read on!!" when it comes to your Book of Mormon reading this year.  Don't look at it as a resolution, but as a lifestyle: "I read my scriptures every day and will for the rest of my life--it helps me to be who I am."  This is how I see it anyway.

So I am here today because my son lost his Book of Mormon reading chart from Primary (children's organization at church), and since I am looking for a replacement, I thought I'd post links here to what I find.   Then hopefully I can add the two that I've made at the end, but I'm not sure how I will do that, since I don't have a scanner.

Here are the links:
Ok, now to try my charts: (I took pictures and lightened them; I hope they copy and paste well.)

THE ROSE 
I often put "My testimony will bloom as I read the Book of Mormon" at the top.  Each section is a chapter and the flower part itself is 3rd Nephi, where the Savior comes to the Americas.




THE TREE
This one marks daily reading instead of chapters.  (You can see that I did this in 1995, for the Young Women in my ward at the time.  It's not that I had a lot of time on my hands back then, it's just that I required less *sleep*.  Ok, you can change the 1995 with white-out to the current year until 9999, and then add an apple.  =)  )Since it starts in April, it might be useful to start this one around General Conference time.



No matter how you keep track, reading the Book of Mormon will help and strengthen you, bring you closer to Christ, and be a source of help and comfort in your life.  I love this book!!!
