The Day Before

The night before we are about to leave Palmyra New York in order to go to the church history sites. Ever since knowing that we were going to go on this church history vacation I had set a goal to finish reading the Doctrine and Covenants. What a remarkable feeling it was to accomplish this and to feel the Spirit so strongly as I read the revelations given to Joseph Smith in Kirtland, Nauvoo, and all the other places he received revelations from.

Now I have the opportunity to go where he was and to strengthen my testimony of him being a Prophet of the Lord. I am so excited to have the opportunity to go. Just to have the opportunity to feel the Spirit so strongly is definitely worth the 2000+ miles we will be traveling.
