In our group “family home evening” (mainly older singles here) Monday, the discussion leader asked us, “When do you study the scriptures?” One older married man from Nicaragua gets up at 5:00 every morning to start the day with study. I confessed to having no strict schedule, as I prefer to study whenever I feel like it — “when I hunger for the word of the Lord, at least once a day.” (It’s so easy with Library on iPhone ... and powerful with guidance from the Spirit.)
This year we are gaining additional insight into the family history of people who fled from Jerusalem in 600 B.C. The parents and children faced serious challenges, some of which are not unlike those we see in families today. As they obeyed God’s commands, they were blessed with success, for which we hope in 2020.
