Here’s your daily dose of what matters most! Keeping records helps us see and understand the hand of God in our lives.
Scripture
And I also command you that ye keep a record of this people, according as I have done, upon the plates of Nephi, and keep all these things sacred which I have kept, even as I have kept them; for it is for a wise purpose that they are kept.—Alma 37:2
Quote
We keep the records because of the Lord’s commandments, and we use them to support the Church’s work of salvation and to help the Saints remember. Records help us see and understand the hand of God and His dealings in our lives.—Steven E. Snow
