Answered Prayers in the Scriptures

The scriptures, especially the Book of Mormon, truly do contain answers to all of life's questions. This last week, I had some concerns on my mind and approached my daily scripture study with the wrong attitude. I have read the Book of Mormon multiple times and knew (or at least I thought I knew) that there was nothing in the Book of Mormon about my particular concerns. Heavenly Father proved me wrong though and the verses that I read that day seemed to speak to my specific situation. I am so grateful that Heavenly Father did not let my poor attitude get in the way of personal revelation. Through this experience, I learned an important lesson-do not underestimate the power of God's word to give direction in ANY circumstance or situation. He loves us and wants to give us the direction we need, if we will only seek it.
