Lesson Recap

Sunday's lesson was on improving ourselves through developing talents. Here is a list steps we can take to develop our talents:

1. We must discover our talents. We should evaluate ourselves to find our strengths and abilities. Our family and friends can help us do this. We should also ask Heavenly Father to help us learn about our talents.

2. We must be willing to spend the time and effort to develop the talent we are seeking.

3. We must have faith that our Heavenly Father will help us, and we must have faith in ourselves.

4. We must learn the skills necessary for us to develop our talents. We might do this by taking a class, asking a friend to teach us, or reading a book.

5. We must practice using our talent. Every talent takes effort and work to develop. The mastery of a talent must be earned.

6. We must share our talent with others. It is by our using our talents that they grow.

President Joseph F. Smith said, “Every son and every daughter of God has received some talents, and each will be held to strict account for the use or misuse to which it is put.”
