“If it was wisdom for Lehi and his family to have the
scriptures, it is just as wise for us today. The great worth and spiritual
power of the scriptures continue undimmed in our lives today. There has never
been a people in history with the access to the Book of Mormon and other
scriptures that we enjoy today. Yes, Lehi and his family were blessed to carry
the brass plates with them, but they didn’t have a copy for every tent! The
most important copy of the Book of Mormon is our personal copy. It is the copy
that we read. It is my prayer that reading the Book of Mormon this year will be
a joy and a blessing for each of us and will draw us ever nearer to the Savior.”
– President Mark L. Pace
