Faith is choosing to believe that God can do what we cannot. Whether we seek forgiveness of sins, strength to carry on amidst trials, or even a witness of things not seen, God will provide if we have faith.
Even as a prophet, Moroni himself had a crisis of faith when he wondered if the people of our day would accept the Book of Mormon. In his conversation with the Lord, he pleaded that those who read the Book of Mormon will see its message of Christ rather than the imperfections of its writers. The Lord comforted Moroni, extending a promise to both him and us that if we choose to have faith, He will always “make weak things become strong” (Ether 12:27).

This week, we’ll be sharing the gospel with your little ones using the activity book in the Elementary Bundle. Be sure to use the activity book for younger children (Level 1, Recommended for ages 3-6). Print your activity book pages, then cut all of them in half, except the cover. You will fold the cover in half to help keep the pages together. Put all your pages in order inside the cover and then staple along the left-hand edge. Make one book for each of your children.
Go & Do Activity
Tell your child that to get stronger, we need to practice building our muscles. When we don’t exercise our muscles can get weak. Get a ball and have your child do rainbow ball sit-ups. Have your child lie on their back and place the ball between their legs. Invite them to lift their legs up in the air while keeping the ball between them. It should be challenging. Have them try to do as many as they can on their own. Pause and discuss. Ask your child if that was difficult. What was hard about that activity? Did they feel strong or weak? Tell your child about Moroni when he felt frail. He thought that he wasn’t good at writing. He felt like people were going to make fun of him. Ask, “Have you had a time when you felt like you weren’t good at something? What did you do?” Read Ether 12:27. Say, “The Lord tells us that He makes weak things become strong.” Have your child do the rainbow ball sit-ups again, but this time you help lift their legs, keeping the ball in place. The Lord can help us make our spirits stronger. If there is a time when we may feel we can’t do something, he will help us. We have to pray and ask for His help.

This week’s lesson from Psalms (Psalms 49–51; 61–66; 69–72; 77–78; 85–86) centers on God’s endless mercy, forgiveness, and role as our safe refuge. The psalmists openly share their struggles, fears, and mistakes, showing us that faith isn’t about being perfect—it’s about knowing who to turn to when we need help.
In modern times, the Lord declared “the song of the heart is a prayer unto me” (Doctrine and Covenants 25:12). In ancient times, songs, or psalms, were used to praise the Lord and remember His covenants with His people. Many Psalms are attributed to King David, whose relationship with God is one of the most detailed in the entire Old Testament. It’s no wonder David is thought to be the author of so many songs that praise the Lord for His strength, His mercy, His patience with His children, and His eternal love for all mankind.
Job had many blessings in his life: a large family, a devoted spouse, and wealth that provided plenty and more for his household. Job gave thanks to God for his blessings, but even when nearly every blessing was taken away, he did not lessen his faith. Instead, as those around him said his faith had been a waste of time, Job showed his trust in the Lord by exercising Christlike patience and long suffering. Eventually, Job’s faith was rewarded, and his trust in God was justified.
