Good Reminder

"The crowning event recorded in the Book of Mormon is the personal ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ among the Nephites soon after His resurrection." (Introduction)

Nothing too deep.  I just had the thought as I read this phrase, that out of all the neat things that happened in Book of Mormon times, Christ's visit is the crowning event. This is not surprising, but I got to thinking. If someone asked me what the crowning event of my life was, would I respond with my experiencing the Lord's hand in my life? Would I look back at the events and experiences I cherish the most, and see the Lord, or will I look back and see worldly experiences?

That makes me think, though, if you take enough time to answer the question, 'what is the crowning prevent or experience in your life', you might have a few quick answers, but if you really think long enough about it, the realization comes that everything comes as a blessing from God.

I'll have to try to be more conscious of these kinds of things so I know what my crowning event will be when I look back at my life.
