How to use your Patriarchal Blessing

How to use your patriarchal Blessing

by Rachel Bruner

A few weeks ago I attended a wonderful class about patriarchal blessings, by Carleen Tanner. She taught how a patriarchal blessing is our own personal scriptures from the Lord and is a priceless tool that we should not hide away and never use. Sister Tanner gave some excellent tips on how to use our blessing, which I found very helpful.

1.     Make a copy of your patriarchal blessing

2.     Get three colored pens/pencils for marking

3.     Underline any words or phrases using the following key:

·         Color 1: Counsel and Warnings

·         Color 2: Descriptions about You

·         Color 3: Your Gifts and Talents

     On a separate piece of paper make a list for each color group of all the words/phrases you underlined

     Look up the words in the scriptures to understand how the Lord uses them

     Use the list of warnings to create goals to do what you've been counseled

     Put your lists and goals in your scriptures

     Read them every night and then "return and report" to the Lord in prayer at the end of your day

As you do this, two things will happen:

1.     You will come to know how much the Lord loves you.

2.     You will know where to go for help, and what to do each day.

Our Father loves us. He wants us to have joy and to be saved from our sins. To help us have joy and be saved He has given us the individual guidance we need through our patriarchal blessing. As we turn to the Lord, humble ourselves, and ask for His help we will be greatly blessed.

February's Tip of the Month

Tip of the Month:

For minor burns, slice a tomato and apply it to the burn, allowing the juice to fully dry. Tomatoes have nature's biggest dose of lycopene, an antioxidant that has anti-inflammatory properties.
