Alma 37:8

"And now, it has hitherto been wisdom in God that these things should be preserved; for behold, they have enlarged the memory of this people, yea, and convinced many of the error of their ways, and brought them to the knowledge of their God unto the salvation of their souls."
Alma 37:8


I like this concept that the scriptures enlarge our memories. :)  Kind of like journals or home movies I suppose... they help us to remember our lives further than we normally do.  The scriptures also open us up to memories beyond the limit of our earth lives, and help us to remember things that happened to our family in times past.  Memories can be scary too, but in this case, the memories offer hope, knowledge, and help in changing ourselves to be more like we want to be.  It's like getting an extra hard drive for our brain.  I love it. :)  When things get cloudy in our brains, we can always hook into the scriptures, and access some on-demand hope. :)
