I am excited and grateful mom that you started this process again!!! I am going to read tonight but it will probably be later in the evening...I can't wait to hear peoples comments and feelings. 

"The things Which I Saw While I was Carried Away in the Spirit"

"The Vision of the Tree of Life"

1st Nephi 8-11; 12:16-18; 15

As you study the account of Lehi's vision,

watch for the following symbols and their meanings.

Tree of Life

Fruit of the tree of life

Iron Rod

Mist of Darkness

River of filthy water

Great and spacious building

"All Things According to His Will"

Today in Sunday school we talked only

briefly about Lehi's family leaving Jeruselam

and heading into the wilderness and

returning to get the Brass Plates.

But what we focused on were the characteristics

of Nephi vs. Laman and Lemuel.....

Nephi :

respected his parents

has a relationship with the Lord

Faithful

Desired to know the truth

Courageous

Pro-active

Positive

Laman and Lemuel:

Negative

no respect for parents

Cruel

denied miracles of God

Lazy

Made excuses

No desire to serve the Lord

What other traits do you see in these brothers?

..........

who were raised by the same parents

with the same teachings

same opportunities

and same beliefs

and yet they are so very different.

interesting

A new year a new beginning

Alright everyone, this is not for just us

invite your friends, invite your

in laws, invite anyone!!!

------------

Together we can do this!!!

Last year we started off really strong

and this year we will remain strong

together as a family to make it through

the Book of Mormom!!!

----------

I will put the schedule on the side and a

post every Sunday for the week to follow.

You can add comments anytime you would

like through the week or at the end of the week.

Can't wait to do this with all of you!!!
