Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 20 | May 12-18 | Doctrine and Covenants 46-48

Do you have a cherished gift from a birthday or Christmas that you’ll always remember? The Lord gives gifts to those who are ready and willing to use them to do His will. In D&C 46, we read examples of spiritual gifts that are meant to bless and teach the early saints how to grow the Church. These include the gifts of testifying of Christ, the gift of administering the Church, and the gift of having faith.

We should live worthy of having these gifts and teach our children to seek them. The Lord promises in verse 11 that “to every man is given a gift by the Spirit of God.” These gifts will help our homes be places of peace and our families live in greater love towards each other.

Come Follow Me FHE lessons include everything you need to make family scripture study fun for your kids! Empower your children to love the gospel with our engaging activities. Start your free trial now!

Family Memories

Go & Do Activity

With your child, look at a family picture book or memory book together that includes pictures of your family and your child as a baby. You may also want to watch videos from when your child was a baby. Talk about how the photos and the videos help you remember the things that are important to you. We can also write down the things that are important to us. We can keep family records of the stories of our family members. Heavenly Father has asked us to keep records (D&C 47). Complete the “I Can Keep My Family History” mini book with your child. Teach that keeping records helps us remember the things that Heavenly Father has blessed us with.

The toddler bundle includes a lesson plan and three activities every week. Grab the toddler bundle in our subscription.

“Worth … the Riches of the Whole Earth”

We often keep things of value in special places: important documents kept in a secured file or safe, dinner china in a display cabinet, or treats too good to share with kids up on the top shelf. These things are kept safe and out of easy reach for good reasons, but there are other things of value we need to make sure are always available to us. Our scriptures are one of these things.

“The Lord Requireth the Heart and a Willing Mind”

We all make mistakes as parents. Sometimes our attention is wrongly distracted from a child’s needs, or perhaps we raised our voice in anger when we should have been calm. Do we seek forgiveness from both the Lord and our children when we do these things? Do we sincerely forgive our children when they err? As the Savior Jesus Christ plainly explains in Doctrine and Covenants 64, forgiveness is a crucial component of achieving peace in the home.

“I Am with the Faithful Always”

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.”
