Isaiah prophesies about the Millenium. Everyone will know about Christ. What an exciting time that will be. There will be no disputation about whether or not there is a Christ. There will be simply obedience or open rebellion- nothing in between.
We're actually reading in 2 Nephi as a family right now as well and we just had a discussion about the Millenium with the kids last week. Last night Nathanael came into my bedroom and told me that Frosty (our adopted cat) had caught another mouse outside. He was pretty distraught because he said it was tiny and so cute. Lance told him not to be upset- that's how Frosty was made- to hunt. Nathanael protested, "But it really was tiny and so cute! I can't wait for the Millenium and then there won't be any more killing of animals at all." I laughed and agreed with him. But then another thought occurred to me, "You realize that means you won't be eating any more steak either, right?" His eyes got huge and he thought hard for a second. Then he said, "Well, I better eat as much steak as I can before then!"

The study notes of one seeking understanding and joy in the scriptures
Purpose
I have read and read and read the scriptures in my life. I truly have a testimony of the divinity of the Book of Mormon, Doctrine & Covenants, the Pearl of Great Price, and the New and Old Testaments of the Bible. Now, I am attempting to do more than just read, skimming over the top. I want to feast on the words of Christ that I may become more like Him and find the joy in this life that He has promised. There will be days that I will have to simply read. Hopefully there will be more days that I get to sit down and really dig deep- searching, pondering, and praying. Either way, my goal is to be sure to be in the scriptures, no matter what, every single day. Post or no post- I will make time for Heavenly Father in my life by spending time in the scriptures every single day.
