Learning is a lifelong journey. While we tend to think of our years in school as the only time in life when we need to gain an education, we know through Doctrine and Covenants 88 that the Lord instructs His faithful to create places of learning in their own homes (D&C 88:119). How do we do that?
Sometimes, things just don’t work out the way we had planned: dinner gets burnt, the car won’t start, or you unexpectedly get laid off from your job. You’ve been promised blessings for keeping the commandments. It might be tempting to wonder where those blessings are when ill fortune strikes.
What is “godliness?” Doctrine and Covenants Section 84 uses the word to describe the way that God prepares us to return to live with Him one day. We do this by inviting our children to be baptized and prepare for the temple. Through participating in priesthood ordinances, we increase our access to the priesthood and experience “the power of godliness” as we come to see God’s presence in our lives every day (Doctrine and Covenants 84:20).
