Great wealth in flecks of Gold!

There once was a young merchant from Boston, who in 1849, was caught up in the fervor of the California gold rush. He sold all of his possessions to seek his fortune in the California rivers, which he was told were filled with gold nuggets so big that one could hardly carry them. 
After days of dipping his pan into the river and coming up empty, his only reward being a pile of rocks, as he was about to quit when an old, experience prospector said to him, "That is quite a pile of rocks you are getting there, my boy." The young man replied, "There's no gold here. I am going back home." Walking over to the pile of rocks, the old prospector said, "Oh there is gold all right. You just have to know where to find it." He picked two rocks up in his hands and crashed them together. One of the rocks split open, revealing several flecks of gold sparkling in the sunlight. Noticing a bulging leather pouch fastened to the prospector's waist, the young man said, "I'm looking for nuggets like the ones in your pouch, not just tiny flecks." The old prospector extended his pouch toward the young man, who looked inside, expecting to see several large nuggets. 
He was stunned to see that the pouch was filled with thousands of flecks of gold. the old prospector said, "Son, it seems to me you are so busy looking for large nuggets that you're missing filling your pouch with these precious flecks of gold. The patient accumulation of these little flecks has brought me great wealth."

I think this story illustrates more than just gold mining techniques. There is spiritual gold all around us! Wealth of a more eternal and lasting value is at our finger tips. But most people don't know where to find it. They search and search for what is not to be found. They long for the joy that will accompany such fortune and become discouraged at their lack of results. But like the young, inexperienced gold miner we need the help of one who knows where to find the gold! I want to testify and witness to all who read this post that The Book of Mormon and the Gospel of Jesus Christ are the "gold" that the world is searching for! It might not be in the form they think it should be (aka Nuggets) but is true and will bring great wealth in the lives of all those who read and live it! Read it here for yourself!
