Knowledge #2

In your journal list talents you have and others you would like to develop. Read Matthew 25:14–30. Learn a new skill or talent that will help you care for your own future family or home (for example, playing the piano, singing, budgeting, time management, cooking, sewing, or child care). Share with your family, class, or Young Women leader what you have learned.

Thoughts on Matthew 25:14-30



Heavenly Father has given us all talents. When we use them, develop them, or increases them we are blessed. When we hide them, don't practice, or fail to acknowledge them we lose them. This causes us to deny ourselves some of Heavenly Father's blessings.
I need to read my patriarchal blessing and make sure I am using and developing all of my talents. I can also find others to pursue and practice to make myself a better servant to the Lord.
