Game Plan Pt. 2: The Charity Project

Guess what, internet- 
We're BACK!!!

And brutal as ever.

After a lovely Monday evening chat, we've decided to shake some things up this semester!
Namely, we will focus on a specific SCRIPTURE every week that correlates with our chosen VIRTUE that we're developing. 

 "A memorized scripture becomes an enduring friend that is not weakened with the passage of time." -Robert D. Hales

We'd also like to welcome kindred spirit Chelsea Eversole as a new blog author!
(Interested in posting with us? If you are also a goal-setting, marriageless, missionless blogger, contact Cebre or Lauren. Devotion to girls' nights and the series Once Upon a Time an extra plus.)

Week 2: The Kick-off!
I read this over Christmas break and it blew me away. I'm taking it as my personal theme for the semester. It encompasses everything I need to work on and want to be. 

"Therefore, dearly beloved sisters, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for His arm to be revealed." D&C 123:17


At this point, we are turning our attention to CHARITY. And all the things it does. Each week will focus on a specific aspect of charity- and have an accompanying scripture to be revealed at the beginning of that week. We can feel your suspense building already. 

Week 3: Charity suffereth long.
Week 4: Charity is kind.
  
February 
Week 1: (beginning Feb. 5) Charity envieth not.
Week 2: Charity is not puffed up.
Week 3: Charity seeketh not her own. 
Week 4: Charity is not easily provoked.


March
Week 1: (beginning Mar. 4) Charity thinketh no evil.
Week 2: Charity rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth.
Week 3: Charity beareth all things.
Week 4: Charity believeth all things.

April 
Week 1: Charity hopeth all things. 
Week 2: Charity endureth all things. 
Week 3: Charity never faileth. Cleave to it!
Week 4: Charity is the pure love of Christ. 

Props to Cebre for finding our closing catch-all scripture:
"Wherefore, my beloved sisters, pray unto the Father with all the energy of heart, that ye may be filled with this love, which He hath bestowed upon all who are true followers of His Son, Jesus Christ; that ye may become the daughters of God; that when He shall appear we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is; that we may have this hope; that we may be purified even as He is pure." Moroni 7:48
