Individual worth #2

Why do we get a patriarchal blessings? They are to help guide us in this "wilderness" while we are away from out Heavenly home. They tell us our linage and tell us things we can be prepared to do. But it is all conditioned upon our faith. They an only be given my a patriarch who has been set apart to give them.
Ways to prepare to get them would be praying about them, learning more about patriarchal blessings, talking with family about it, and setting up an appointment to get on.
A patriarchal blessings can teach my of my worth because it comes from Heavenly Father and he knows me better then I know myself. It reconfirms to me that I am a child of God and tells me about qualities I posses that I don't even realize, or ones that I could have if i developed them more,

Why do we partake of the bread and water? John 6:54 "Whoso earth my flesh and drinkers my blood hath eternal life." When we partake pf the sacrament we can be forgiven for our sings. We need to be clean to return to Heavenly Father and have eternal life with him. We promise to 1. Always remember him 2. Keep his commandments 3. Take his name upon us If we can do the frist two then the third should come naturally. Taking his name upon us makes us a representative of Christ, We need to be like Him and be a good example of Christ If we are always thinking of Christ then it should be easy to keep the commandments cause we know what he would do.I try to remember that I am a witness of Christ. When I partake of the sacrament and take his name upon me I am a representative of Him. I want people to be able to see his image in my countenance. If I always remember the Savior then it is easier to keep the commandments and if I am doing those things I am a better representative of...

Blessings from being morally clean and having the Holy Ghost with you because of it. Teach us things Help us to remember things Gives us peace. Spirit of truth that will testify of Christ Speak with the tongue of angels. Show us the things which we should do Holy Spirit is our guide. Constant companion There are many great things that the spirit brings into our life. We are lost in a sense when we aren't worthy to have the spirit because He does not guide us. He cannot dwell in an unclean/unworthy body. I know I love when I feel the spirit in my life. And can't imagine being in a place where I don't have him in my life. One time I lost an envelope that had money orders in it for large amounts. I lost them in a canyon in the middle of the night, on a very windy night. When I realized they had fallen out of my purse I was devastated. I immediately knelt in prayer and felt a sense of peace wash over me. I wasn't told that I would find the money but I just knew i...

Faith #7

Paying tithing has never been hard for me. It's something that was second nature. I remember one time I took money I had set aside for tithing to use to go to the movie or buy treats, When I took it the thought came to me that something bad was going to happen because I took money set aside for tithing. I don't remember exactly what happened but there was a negative consequence of some kind, like I lost $5 of that money or something. It has stuck with me though and reminds me to pay my tithing and never take from the Lord what I have set aside for him. Other blessings of paying tithing come in the form or clothes being given to us, things we need being on sale, or items lasting longer.  I know that the Lord blesses us in ways we don't even know when we pay a full tithe.
