Dear Moroni,
I finished the Book of Mormon with a much greater appeciation for what you and all your forefathers did. It amazes me how diligent you were. Even in the midst of such evil, such hopelessness, you stood tall. Thank you so much for that. You didn't even get to see what amazing things came of your obedience when you were on the earth. Now I hope you can look at it. See what you have done. This Gospel is my life. This book is my guide. I would truly perish if it weren't for the steadfastness of you and your Father. I read these accounts and I know they are true. These were real people. You were real person that suffered possibly one of the worst pains. And that wa being alone. You were the only one standing. You had lost all your loved ones, yet you still held your head up and looked to Heavenly Father for companionship. That is something you have taught me. I know I will never truly be alone.
This week has been one of the hardest weeks of my life. I have felt weaker than ever. I have had to push through the opposition of adulthood. Down on my knees, I have pleaded. Your father sent you a letter that emphasized Faith hope and Charity. Thank you for putting that in there. It has saved me this week.
I know that this Book was for my day and I know that you knew that too. I know that I have a Heavenly Father who is ever mindful of my life. Thank you Moroni for giving us this book.
