What I want my daughter to know part 4: Knowledge


Knowledge
Seek learning, even by study and also by faith. (D&C 88:118)

 I will continually seek opportunities for learning and growth

 Knowledge’s color is Green which reminds us of springtime when things are starting to grow.  We too, should keep growing and learning.

I dressed her in a cap and gown with a diploma in her hand showing how important it is to stay in school.  How important it is to learn and grow.  Graduate from high school, go onto college, and broaden your horizons. 

My Testimony of Knowledge:  On the entrance to BYU it says, “The Glory of God is intelligence.”   Knowledge is power.  Learn all you can.  Absorb everything.  The more you know, the broader your world becomes.  When it comes your time to leave this mortal sphere and return home, you can’t take any earthly thing with you, you take your experiences and the knowledge you have gained.  The knowledge you gain here will help you when you reach the other side.  There is a whole world out there with fascinating subjects to read about, and learn about, all you have to do is pick up a book.  You have the knowledge to know why you are here and what you are doing, and what plan it is that Heavenly Father has laid out for us.  Study and grow. because "beauty fades, dumb is forever."
