Letter of Jeremiah

What did I enjoy about this book? One thing was that it reminded me of many of the conversations I have with my children. Describing the differences between good and evil. Admonishing my children to reject the world and remain faithful to God. The perfect example was of me giving my child a cell phone and warning her of all the dangers that exist on it. Of course, the cellphone had about every filter and block on it possible. I still counseled her about the dangers of the phone.

1 Maccabees

I’m not going to write much about this. I feel like I’m reading JR Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings. I’m having a super hard time getting into it. Honestly, it makes me think of D&C 91 where the spirit will tell you what is truth. When I read Esdras, even though there were a small handful of things that were meh. This book is seriously not doing it for me. I have not felt the spirit or enlightened one bit.

2 Esdras

I started listening to the book 2 Esdras. I was driving back from Vernal, UT to Cedar Hills, UT which is about a 3 hour drive. Honestly, I wanted to hear the full Esdras Eagle Prophecy. But I thought I would know and understand more if I read the whole book. Sometimes I have a hard time reading a lot. So, listening is great. The narrator on the YouTube video I chose was awesome.

1 Esdras

I listened to the book of 1 Esdras today. I’ve been curious what the books of the apocrypha say due to my interest in the Esdras Eagle prophecy. So, on a family trip I decided to pull up that book and listen to it. Time and time again it reminded me of reading the book of Ether in the Book of Mormon. I thought that was interesting.
