Learn By Faith
For those sisters who weren't able to be in Relief Society this past Sunday, we talked about learning by faith. Lorenzo Snow said, "The whole idea of Mormonism is improvement-mentally, physically, morally, and spiritually. No half-way education suffices for the Latter-day Saint."
He taught us of: Education of the Spirit, Faith, Exertion, and Perseverance
Our teacher shared that, for us, reading the scriptures and gaining knowledge is compared to a child learning the ABC's. They don't learn is all at once and don't work on it one letter at a time (like starting with A, next B, and knowing it right away) Children learn by repeating it over and over again, beginning to end until they get it. Just with us, we don't just read the scriptures and remember every single story. We need to read over and over again so we don't forget. Learning is always an ongoing process...
Reminders:
Tuesday, February 5th is coming up. We are still in need of thread, scissors, batting, and material (flannel, fleece, cotton, poly...). We are making lap blankets for local assisted living centers. Also, we will be sewing them together that night, so please bring a sewing machine if you are willing and able.
*We will be cutting material in 6x6 squares, you are welcome to come with them already cut if you can:) Or bring the material to me (Raquel Goodman) and I will cut it for you. 2316 Sioux Trl Bar Nunn
