There is power in it!

"Is there not something deep in our hearts that longs to draw nearer to God, to be more like Him in our daily walk, to feel His presence with us constantly? If so, then the Book of Mormon will help us do so more than any other book.

It is not just that the Book of Mormon teaches us truth, though it indeed does that. It is not just that the Book of Mormon bears testimony of Christ, though it indeed does that, too. But there is something more. There is a power in the book which will begin to flow into your lives the moment you begin a serious study of the book. You will find greater power to resist temptation. You will find the power to avoid deception. You will find the power to stay on the straight and narrow path...When you begin to hunger and thirst after those words, you will find life in greater and greater abundance."

Ezra Taft Benson

48-49 1 Ne. 20:21-21:26

The Lord will deliver His covenant people. He will deliver us from the hands of the mighty and the terrible. (vs25) He will never forget us, we are engraven on the palms of his hands. He will fight our battles for us. What a great partner to make a covenant with. We must do our part, however small it is, and then Christ steps in and liberates us from all our sins,shortcomings, and ailments. The Atonement is the only source of true happiness and peace.
