The title page of The Book of Mormon includes the subtitle, Another Testament of Jesus Christ.
As a librarian, I learned the subtitle of a book often gives the best clue for what the book is about.
How true of this one!

Daily Blessings
A habit that delivers daily blessings is studying from the pages of The Book of Mormon.
Which doesn't explain why I took a"week off" after finishing it this time.
Well . . . it's begin again day, starting by singing the Primary song of "the books" in The Book:

My Testimony of the Book of Mormon - 2016
My testimony of The Book of Mormon is steady but not stationary.
It grows in unexpected and even thrilling ways.
I know this book to be true through regular study, prayer, and daily application of its principles.
My mind creates new scenes of the history in which Book of Mormon characters participated.
I imagine Christ visiting his "other sheep" and blessing their children "one by one."
My testimony is personal.
I know it is true by the power of the Holy Ghost and separate from the influence of another person.
Anyone can receive a testimony.
It is the result of reading the book "with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ."*
This is my steadfast testimony.
In the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen.
*Moroni 10:4

Know the Truth
Moroni 10:5 "And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things."
To know the truth. What else is there to desire? What could be better?

When Love is Lost
Moroni 9:5 ". . they have lost their love, one towards another; . ."
The loss of love for one another opens the door to destruction.

God is Unchangeable
Moroni 8:18 "For I know that God is not a partial God, neither a changeable being; but he is unchangeable from all eternity to all eternity."
In a world of constant change, God does not.
