Individual Worth #1 and Good Works #6

                Hi! I am Panda and I just barely turned 12. I am so excited to finally be in Young Women. I really was excited to start because I was the last person in my class to turn 12.


                I have finished Individual Worth #1. In order to finish it I had to 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. Then I had to write in my journal on how those scriptures taught me that Heavenly Father knows, loves, and is mindful of me. How I know that my Heavenly Father loves me is that he helps me through my trials.


                I also finished Good Works #6. What you have to do is spend at least 3 hours giving service outside your family. I babysat a family with my sister, while the parents went out for free.  
                Well that’s all for now, see you later.

Divine Nature #7 - Peacemaker

Hey! For this experience I had to learn the definition of peacemaker.  I looked up scriptures to help me better understand what a peacemaker is. One of the scriptures I found was :    Matthew 5:9


Matt 5:9

I took this picture. Isn't it cool? I tried to be more of a peacemaker for two weeks. I prayed for help each day. I sometimes was hard, but it was worth it to keep the spirit in my home. 

Being a peacemaker is part of your divine nature because sometimes it is hard to be a peacemaker and Christ was a peacemaker, so being a peacemaker is being more Christlike.

That's all for now! See ya!

Divine Nature 6- Developing Divine Qualities

I recently finished Divine Nature #6. For this you develop divine qualities. There were multiple scriptures that I read to help me know what Divine qualities I can develop. Some them I found in the scriptures are:

  • Peacemaker
  • Loving one another
  • Joy
  • Gentleness
  • Long suffering
  • Goodness
  • Faith
  • Forgiveness
  • Charity
  • Gentleness
One of my favorite scriptures I read was 1 John 4:2
" And this commandment have we from him, that he who loveth God love his brother also." 
I like this scripture because it is saying that if you love God you love everyone, even your enemies. I tried to be more gentle for two weeks. I prayed for help and tried to keep the spirit with me.

 I  memorized this scripture, wrote on a piece of paper, and hung it up to remind me to love God. I challenge you to memorize it.

Well that's all for now. See you!
