“A Voice of Gladness for the Living and the Dead”

Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 45 | November 2-9 | Doctrine and Covenants 125-128

Even during the early years in Nauvoo, there were times when the Prophet Joseph still had to flee for his life from those who sought to stop the work. Yet even in hiding, he continued to keep his focus on the restoration of the gospel, specifically with baptisms for the dead. “That subject seems to occupy my mind, and press itself upon my feelings the strongest, since I have been pursued by my enemies” (Doctrine and Covenants 128:1). No matter what trials he faced, Joseph never forgot his calling to restore Christ’s Church.

Throughout our daily trials, we should always remember to “Think Celestial” and focus on what matters most. When we put the Lord first, we feel His love and become more aware of His presence in our home and with our family. As He told Brigham Young after several long stretches of Church service, “Your offering is acceptable to me. I have seen your labor and toil… for my name” (D&C 126:1-2).
