Lessons

June 6th lesson was on Repentance.  Would you put your eternal life at risk?
The Steps of repentance  
                1. Recognition of the sin or wrong doing
                2. Sorrow or remorse for having committed the wrong doing.
                3. Ask Forgiveness of our Father in Heaven and those we may have
                   wronged.
                4. Commit not to do it again.
                5. Make restitution as much as possible
                6. Accept the Atonement of our Savior which allows us to repent.
        
May 30th lesson was a combined meeting with Priesthood, Relief Socity, Young Men and Young Women.

The discussion was about the Priesthood.  "Priesthood is the authority to do God's will upon the Earth"  We must be ever vigilant and teach our children the value of the priesthood in their lives.  Doctrine and Covenants Section 121 Verses 41 thru 43 give a a good example of how to use the priesthood in the proper manner. The priesthood should be exercised in a loving and gentle way, not by force.

You might find time to read Proverbs Chapter 13.  See if you find a new meaning for an old adage?
Would Rod mean the Word of God??
