Doctrine and Covenants 58–59:
D&C 58 – Be Strong and Do Good
Hard times come before blessings. God says we must go through trials before we receive great blessings.
Don’t wait to be told everything. God wants us to choose to do good things, not just wait for commands.
Repent and confess. If we sin, we should admit it and sincerely repent.
Follow the laws. Obey God’s laws and the laws of your country.
D&C 59 – How to Live in Zion (God’s Holy City)
Obey and be blessed. When we keep God’s commandments, we receive spiritual and physical blessings.
Keep the commandments. God reminds us of important rules like loving Him, not stealing, not killing, and not being jealous.
Honor the Sabbath. Sundays (or the Sabbath) should be a holy day to worship, rest, and grow closer to God.
Be thankful. Always show gratitude for what you have.
Use the earth wisely. Nature is a gift from God—use it with respect and thankfulness.
