To start this Come Follow Me lesson, ask your children if they could be given anything what would it be? Let each family member take a turn to respond. Read together 3 Nephi 28. Use the 3 Nephi 28 Foldable Book. Let the children color it and put it together. Then let them retell the story using their book. Explain that Christ gave the Disciples whatever they wanted. It was spreading the gospel that brought them joy and happiness.
Read 4 Nephi 1:1-18 as a family or read it before hand and summarize the verses for your family. For younger children use the People Puppets to help discuss what true happiness is. For older children use the Guide to Happiness Activity.
As a bonus activity, read together 3 Nephi 27:1-12. Discuss as a family why it is important to be called “The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints” Make the crown and share one reason you are grateful to be a member of the church.
Read together 3 Nephi 27:7. Complete the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints puzzle.

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.
