A Great Exercise

Moroni 7:45-47

"wherefore he must needs have charity..."

In these verses identify 13 attributes of charity, what it is and is not?

Literary Pattern

Did you know that most chapters in the Book of Mormon on average contain 25 verses, that is roughly about 3 and 1/2 columns.  I have found that in most chapters, the authors in the book, made it a point to highlight three verses in each chapter, one in the beginning and in the end, and one in the middle- the middle the most important. It was a literary pattern that they followed.  I will demonstrate this with Mormon's epistle to his son Moroni, Moroni chapter 9:

verse 4...wherefore, I fear lest the Spirit of the Lord hath ceased striving with them...

verse 11-13... how can a people like this...
(he repeats this theme for a few verses-a warning)

verse 25... My son, be faithful in Christ...but may Christ lift thee up...

Season Cycles

You take your jotter card and chad your accomplishments on the jotter sheet. That's it! The colored circles are the seasons- green/spring, yellow/summer, orange/fall, blue/winter, the time your goal or endeavor- your working on.  The red chad completes the season cycle.

Jottering

One of the challenges toward the end of the year is completing your lesson reading assignments; ending this years and beginning for next years; slowdown, plan your time and track- when to study. Use a technique I call "jottering" as displayed, filling in dark or colored spaces like these examples above.

Diadem

From scripturegirl (my daughter) to scripture man.

3 Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.

Isaiah 62:
