"Wo be unto him that shall say: We have received the word of God, and we need no more of the word of God, for we have enough!"
"For behold, thus saith the Lord God: I will give unto the children of men line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little and there a little; and blessed are those who hearken unto my precepts, and lend an ear unto my counsel, for they shall learn wisdom; for unto him that receiveth I will give more; and from them that shall say, We have enough, from them shall be taken away even that which they have."
Each and everyday we have new challenges and new task that we face. I can't even manage saying I have enough. I look at the days that I miss reading my scriptures or saying my prayers and I wasn't as happy or willing to do things or didn't learn the best I could have. It is so neat to know that if we are willing to accept and learn from our Heavenly Father he will continue to give us more. I look back at the manual for Relief Society and Priesthood this year. We look at it as basic information but as long as we are willing to learn then we will be blessed with new information and knowledge, or a new outlook on something. As long as we are willing to do our part, we can be blessed with so much. Heavenly Father wants us to be happy. It is amazing to me that the days I am diligent in reading my scriptures and saying my prayers I am the happiest. That is because the Lords way is the only way to true and everlasting happiness.

I agree. I sometimes think that missing one or two days won't make a difference, but then I skip a day and I find out it does. There certainly is a power that comes from daily scripture study.
This is Anna.
There is a certain power in the scriptures. When i miss a day or two I often find that i have a bad attitude. Go scripture power!
