The Book of Mormon in 59 Days

We were challenged in Relief Society to read the Book of Mormon in 59 days.  It started one week ago and you have to read 9 pages a day.  I decided that this was a great challenge for me because I knew it would be really hard.  One of my goals this year is to become closer to Christ.  I thought I would go about that by reading Jesus the Christ but when I heard about this challenge, I thought that would be a good place to start.

I am now in Nephi 2 and the experience has been totally different for me.  Normally, I try to read maybe a chapter a night.  Reading this quickly has really helped me see how much Christ is prophesied of and testified of.  It is really hard for me.  Nine pages is alot right now and school starts tomorrow, so it is going to get harder.  But I know the end goal and that is what I am focusing on.  I do believe that it will bring me closer to my Savior.
