Second paragraph in "The Grandeur of God" by Jeffrey R Holland General Confrerence Oct 2003 (Honestly…if you do NOTHING else for this lesson prep. READ THIS TALK!!! It is incredibly profound and absolutely true.)
John 17:3
What are some of the tools we have been given to come to know Him?
1 John 4:7-8
Mosiah 5:13
Doctrine & Covenants 93:1
"Using the Supernal Gift of Prayer" by Richard G Scott General Conference Apr 2007 (first three paragraphs-but the whole thing is good! :) of course!)
Personal Progress Goal:
Individual Worth value experience #1 ( I would add reading (or watching!!) "The Grandeur of God" to this- it's not mandatory ( of course) but highly recommended …by me!)

1 . You are a daughter of Heavenly Father, who knows you
and loves you . Read Psalm 8:4–6; Jeremiah 1:5; John
13:34; Doctrine and Covenants 18:10; Abraham 3:22–23;
and Joseph Smith—History 1:1–20 . Write in your journal
how these scriptures teach you that Heavenly Father
knows you, loves you, and is mindful of you .
I loved Elder Holland's talk! I've never thought about Christ's mortal life that way before. That was such a cool talk.
ReplyDeleteMe too! That talk totally changed the way I saw Christ's life and mission and who I saw our Father in Heaven! Soo , soo good! Glad you read it! :)
