As the Lord Jesus Christ continued to reveal His restored Church through the Prophet Joseph, the early Saints were instructed to gather in Kirtland, Ohio, leaving behind their comfortable homes and businesses. The idea of living according to God’s way and dedicating their lives to the Lord was an exciting prospect for many of these saints. The sacrifices they made along the way were not easy, but their work still impacts our lives today through the global blessings of the gospel.
Having the humility to follow God’s will for us will never be simple or easy. But God does provide a way for us to know He will recognize even our smallest efforts to follow Him. He promises that if we live in a way ready to act on His guidance, “ye shall not fear” (D&C 38:30).

Hands-On Activity
Ask your child where they would look for treasure. Would they look on an island, in the sea, or on a ship? Teach that Heavenly Father has taught us to seek treasures of wisdom and learning. These are more valuable than gold. He has given us the scriptures where we can find treasures of knowledge. Read D&C 38:30. Explain that we can “treasure up wisdom” by reading the scriptures and keeping these treasures forever. Then, make a treasure box. Hide the jewels throughout your scripture pages. Help your child search for each of the jewels and place them in their box. You may want to place a gem near your favorite scripture and read that scripture when your child finds that gem. Help your child fill their box as they “treasure up knowledge” by reading the scriptures! Bear your testimony of the scriptures.

It’s easy to wish the Lord would show us everything we need to do to be happy and successful. However, that’s not His way. Instead, we are to act under His guidance and do the things we feel would bring to pass righteousness. As He tells the saints in Doctrine and Covenants 62, do that “as seemeth you good, it mattereth not unto me; only be faithful.”
We all want to arrive at our own “promised land” or “Zion” sooner rather than later. However, we cannot forget that the process of getting there is just as important as the destination itself. As we follow Jesus Christ and keep His commandments, we are changed to become more like the Savior. The trials that accompany this period of growth are essential the eternal reward of being with our families forever, for “after much tribulation come the blessings (DC 58:4).”
In a world that revolves around money, it can be stressful to know how we can support our families and make the most of the resources we obtain. We should feel grateful to know that in the Lord’s Church, Jesus Christ provides direction on how temporal resources can be used to further His work. He instructs the saints in Doctrine and Covenants 51 to collect money, food, and clothing to help provide for each other. We also read of the commandment to build a bishop’s storehouse.
