Personal Progress Challenge

This has been an idea influenced by my sister and a girl in my ward. It seemed to be the perfect solution to some of the difficulties I have been experiencing.

Why has Personal Progress been instituted into the Young Women program?
-helps to literally "PROGRESS"
-establishes basic foundational principles of the gospel: scripture reading, journal writing, paying tithing, etc.
-explains the importance of worthiness and obedience
-learn to depend on the Lord
-understand the value that every woman has in the eyes of our Heavenly Father
-learn while they are young

"Enter ye in at the strait gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the way which leadeth to destruction and many there be who go in there at because strait is the gate and narrow is the way which leadeth unto life and few there be that find it."

When we learn while we are young, to make choices that are in line with the principles of the gospel and the teachings of the prophets, we are led down a path that is narrow, but it leadeth unto life and innumerable blessings.

I wrote each experience on a piece of paper and put into a bag. I shook it up and pulled out a slip of paper.
It said:


VIRTUE #3

Prepare to be worthy to enter the temple and to participate in temple ordinances. Read Alma chapter 5. Make a list of the questions Alma asks. Answer the questions for yourself, and make a list of the things you can and will do to prepare yourself to be pure and worthy to enter the temple and receive all the blessings our Heavenly Father has promised His beloved daughters.

I am making myself accountable by recording my experiences on my blog.
Maybe you guys can do it with me!
