Why is it so important to learn about the creation?

That question came up a couple weeks ago in Sunday school and so I started thinking about it. Why is it so important? The creation of the Earth was not the beginning. We were Spirits living with Heavenly Father before the Earth was created. The creation of the Earth was the beginning of how Heavenly Father's plan started. He gave us a beautiful world so we could come and gain bodies and live a life. It is very important for us to know where we came from and how we got here. Everyone questions that sometime in his or her life. So Heavenly Father has given us the knowledge of where we came from and how we got here and it all started with Adam and Eve.

To learn where we came from, why we are here, and what we are supposed to do while we are here. I know for me the whole plan wouldn't make sense without knowing about the creation. Why do you ask?

It's so true this is important for us to know. We take this for granted because we've known it our whole lives, but some people aren't as lucky as us.

A New Favorite Scripture

The young women recite this scripture every Sunday along with their theme. I really like it so it's my new scripture to memorize. Therefore, I would that ye should be steadfast and immovable, always abounding in good works, that Christ, the Lord God Omnipotent, may seal you his, that you may be brought to heaven, that ye may have everlasting salvation and eternal life, through the wisdom, and power, and justice, and mercy of him who created all things, in heaven and in earth, who is God above all. Amen. Mosiah 5:15

He Has A Plan

The pandemic of COVID-19 has wreaked havoc all over the world. My family is starting the fourth week since the state government put in force a Stay-At-Home order. We can only leave our homes if we have an "essential" job, if we need to buy essential items/food, or if we need to take care of someone. My five kids have gotten into a routine of waking up, doing school work, seminary work, reading, then free time. My husband is working from home and has multiple virtual calls throughout the day. It was a lot to get used to. Compared to many others, these changes have not been that hard on our family. Actually, most of the time I really enjoy everyone home. When they aren't using their limited electronic time, they have used their imaginations to think of creative things to do. Yes, I had to take one son to the ER last week because he fell and got a concussion, but we are truly very blessed. I know there are many that are suffering through this pandemic for many reasons.
