1 Daughters in the Kingdom Come Unto Christ Day 1 Moroni 10:32 Thought for the day: Followers of Christ pattern their lives after the Savior to walk in the light. Two characteristics can help us recognize to what extent we follow Him. First, followers of Christ are loving people. Second, followers of Christ make and keep covenants. - Elder Walter F. Gonzales Scripture Study: 1 Nephi 1-10 Mark and Ponder: 1 Nephi 3:7 Day 2 D&C 50:29-30 Thought for the day: Faith is a gift of God; it is the fruitage of righteous living. It does not come to us by our command but is the result of doing the will of our Heavenly Father. - George A. Smith Scripture Study: 1 Nephi Mark and Ponder: 1 Nephi 15:34 Do you have a current temple recommend? Even un-endowed members can carry a limited use recommend. Day 3 Matthew 4:3-4 Thought for the day: Regardless of your particular circumstances, as you become more and more familiar with the truths of the scriptures, you will be more and more effective in keeping the second great commandment, to love your neighbor as yourself. Become scholars of the scriptures not to put others down, but to lift them up! - Spencer W. Kimball Scripture Study: 1 Nephi Mark and Ponder: 1 Nephi 19:23 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 Day 7 Matthew 21:21 Thought for the day: When we qualify ourselves by our worthiness, when we strive with faith nothing wavering to fulfill the duties appointed to us, when we seek the inspiration of the Almighty in the performance of our responsibilities, we can achieve the miraculous. -Thomas S. Monson Scripture Study: 1 Nephi 19 2 Mark and Ponder: 2 Nephi 2:11 D&C 121:45-46 Thought for the day: As you guard your virtue and purity, you will be given strength.

Scripture Study: 2 Nephi 2-6 Mark and Ponder: 2 Nephi 2:25 D&C 11:12-14 Thought for the day: I stress the deep need each woman has to study the scriptures. We want our homes to be blessed with sister scriptorians whether you are single or married, young or old, widowed or living in a family. After all, who has any greater need to treasure up the truths of the gospel (on which they may call in their moments of need) than do women and mothers who do so much nurturing and teaching? - Spencer W. Kimball Scripture Study: 2 Nephi 7-11 Mark and Ponder: 2 Nephi 2:27 D&C 76:9-10 Thought for the day: The ability to qualify for, receive, and act on personal revelation is the single most important skill that can be acquired in this life. - Julie E.

Nelson Thought for the day: Every sister in this Church who has made covenants with the Lord has a divine mandate to help save souls, to lead the women of the world, to strengthen the homes of Zion, and to build the kingdom of God. - Elder M. Russell Ballard Thought for the day: Remember that we do not run alone in this great race of life; we are entitled to the help of the Lord. - Thomas S. Monson Thought for the day: In any and every age of the world when God has called or commanded a man or a people to perform a certain work, they through determination and perseverance, and faith in him, have been enabled to accomplish it. -Wilford Woodruff Scripture Study: 2 Nephi Mark and Ponder: 2 Nephi 28:8-9 Scripture Study: Jacob 1-5 Mark and Ponder: 2 Nephi 31:13 Scripture Study: Jacob 6-Omni Mark and Ponder: 2 Nephi 31:20 Scripture Study: Words of Mormon Mosiah 3 Mark and Ponder: 2 Nephi 32:8-9 Day 12 Day 13 Day 14 Go the extra mile this week in your church assignments. Find out how the people you visit teach are doing, and discover what you can do to make their lives easier. Find a way to magnify your other callings that you hadn t considered before. D&C 75:3,5 Thought for the day: The happiness of a man (or woman) does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions. - Alfred Lord Tennyson John 6: 35 Thought for the day: How you deal with life s trials is part of the development of your faith. Strength comes when you remember that you have a divine nature, and inheritance of infinite worth. -Elder Russell M. Nelson D&C 84:88 Thought for the day: God s angels are ever on call to help us What a promise! When we are faithful, He and His angels will help us. - Elder Russell M. Nelson Scripture Study: Mosiah 4-9 Scripture Study: Mosiah Scripture Study: Mosiah Mark and Ponder: Jacob 2:18-19 Mark and Ponder: Mosiah 2:17 Mark and Ponder: Mosiah 3:19
3 Day 15 Day 16 Day 17 2 Nephi 26:23 Thought for the day: Don t be limited in your views with regard to your neighbors virtues. You must enlarge your souls toward others if you d do like Jesus. As you increase in innocence and virtue, as you increase in goodness, let your hearts expand let them be enlarged towards others you must be longsuffering and bear with the faults and errors of mankind. How precious are the souls of men! - Joseph Smith Scripture Study: Mosiah Mark and Ponder: Mosiah 4:27 Study from the topical guide and other reference materials all you can on the subject of CHARITY. Use the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price as primary references. Find ways to be more charitable to those in your life. D&C 59: 9-11 Thought for the day: I believe it is far more important to live for our faith than to die for our faith. - Mark E. Petersen Scripture Study: Alma 1-5 Mark and Ponder: Mosiah 4:30 Ether 12:27 Thought for the day: This is what we desire to instill into the hearts of the sisters to be useful in their sphere and not be discouraged because of difficulties in the way, but trust in God and look to Him, and His marvelous blessings, I will promise you, will be poured out upon you. -Lorenzo Snow Scripture Study: Alma 6-10 Mark and Ponder: Alma 4:10 Day 18 Day 19 Day 20 Day 21 Romans 1:16 Acts 5:32 D&C 112:34 3 Nephi 12:19-20 Thought for the day: You will be a light to the world as you share your testimony with others Through the combined faith and testimony of His daughters, God will touch the lives of millions in His kingdom and across the world with His light. -Pres. Henry B. Eyring Scripture Study: Alma Mark and Ponder: Alma 5:14 Thought for the day: Nothing is so much calculated to lead people to forsake sin as to take them by the hand and watch over them with tenderness. When persons manifest the least kindness and love to me, O what power it has over my mind, while the opposite course has a tendency to harrow up all the harsh feelings and depress the human mind. Joseph Smith Scripture Study: Alma Mark and Ponder: Alma 5:46 Thought for the day: The average woman today, I believe, would do well to appraise her interests, evaluate the activities in which she is engaged, and then take steps to simplify her life, putting things of first importance first, placing emphasis where the rewards will be greatest and most enduring, and ridding herself of the less rewarding activities. -Belle S. Spafford, 9th Relief Society general president: Scripture Study: Alma Mark and Ponder: Alma 11:40 Thought for the day: Each time you choose to try to live more like the Savior, you will have your testimony strengthened. You will come in time to know for yourself that He is the light of the world. - Pres. Henry B. Eyring Scripture Study: Alma Mark and Ponder: Alma 11:43

By doing our duty, faith increases until it becomes perfect knowledge." -Heber J. Grant Thought for the day: Satan wants us to be miserable as he is. And he knows that we can only have that true happiness if we are washed clean through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, by deep and continuing repentance. - Henry B. Eyring Thought for the day: It is so likewise with evil things.

Eyring Scripture Study: Alma Mark and Ponder: Alma 37:35-37 Study from the topical guide and other reference materials all you can on the subject of FAITH. Use the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price as primary references. Ponder your own faith in light of what you ve discovered and seek to make it stronger. Day 27 2 Nephi 28: Thought for the day: Who are we going to believe in our search for happiness and well-being? Will it be Satan, the author of all lies and deceit, whose single objective is to destroy us? Or are we going to believe a loving Heavenly Father, who is the source of all truth and happiness, whose sole objective is rewarding us with His eternal love and joy? -Richard C. Edgley Scripture Study: Alma Mark and Ponder: Alma 41:10-11 Day 28 Matthew 23:25-26 Thought for the day: You are chosen to be faithful women of God in our day, to stand above pettiness, gossip, selfishness, lewdness, and all other forms of ungodliness. Recognize your divine birthright as daughters of our Heavenly Father. -Howard W. Hunter Scripture Study: Alma Mark and Ponder: Alma 60:23
5 Day 29 Matthew 7:24-27 Thought for the day: If our house is built upon a rock with the brick and mortar of good works, it will withstand the storms and perils of life and preserve us for an eternal inheritance hereafter. If it is built upon the sands of evil with the rusty nails and rotting timber of carnal things, it will be destroyed. - Bruce R. McConkie Scripture Study: Helaman 1-9 Day 30 Mosiah 24:15-16 Thought for the day: No pain that we suffer, no trial that we experience is wasted. It ministers to our education, to the development of such qualities as patience, faith, fortitude, and humility It is through sorrow an d suffering, toil and tribulation, that we gain the education that we come here to acquire. Elder Orson F. Whitney Scripture Study: Helaman Day 31 Luke 24:39-40, Thought for the day: The Savior is not a silent observer. He Himself knows personally and infinitely the pain we face. Elder Kent F. Richards Scripture Study: Helaman 15 3 Nephi 4 Day 32 Matthew 5:25 Thought for the day: We like to be appreciated but if we do not get all the appreciation which we think is our due, what matters? We know the Lord has laid high responsibilities upon us, and there is not a wish or desire that the Lord has implanted in our hearts in righteousness but will be realized... - Eliza Snow Scripture Study: 3 Nephi 5-10 Mark and Ponder: Helaman 5:12 Mark and Ponder: Helaman 10:4-5 Mark and Ponder: 3 Nephi 11:14-15 Mark and Ponder: 3 Nephi 11:29 Day 33 Day 34 Day 35 Next Fast Sunday strive to fast and pray for the spiritual strength to change something in your life or character that is separating you from Christ. Pray for a change of heart and the ability to repent and forsake whatever sin or weakness might be plaguing you. Matthew 5:48 Thought for the day: We may not achieve our ideals in a day, but like stars, they serve to guide us on our way. Alma 7:11 Thought for the day: Our women are not incredible because they have managed to avoid the difficulties of life..they are incredible because of the way they face the trials of life They remain remarkably strong and immovable and true to the faith. Elder Quentin L. Cook 2 Corinthians 7:9-10 Thought for the day: The gospel plan is the plan by which men are brought to a fullness of joy. This is the first concept I wish to stress: The gospel principles are the steps and guidelines that will help us find true happiness and joy. - Ezra Taft Benson Scripture Study: 3 Nephi Mark and Ponder: 3 Nephi 12:48 Scripture Study: 3 Nephi Mark and Ponder: 3 Nephi 27:8 Scripture Study: 3 Nephi Mark and Ponder: Mormon 2:13-14
6 Day 36 Day 37 Day 38 D&C 12:8-9 Thought for the day: You wonderful sisters render compassionate service to others for reasons that supersede desires for personal benefits. In this you emulate the Savior, who, though a king, did not seek position, nor was He concerned about whether others noticed Him. His thoughts were always tuned to help others. He knew that greatness had little to do with outward signs of prosperity or position. -Pres Dieter F. Uchtdorf Scripture Study: 4 Nephi Mormon 8 Mark and Ponder: Ether 12:27 D&C 101:38 Thought for the day: Jesus will not be found by crusades of men. Jesus will not be found in councils of debate. The formula for finding Jesus has always been and ever will be the same the earnest and sincere prayer of a humble and pure heart. - Thomas S. Monson Scripture Study: Mormon 9 Ether 3 Mark and Ponder: Ether 12:41 3 Nephi 27:21 Thought for the day: Let us have compassion upon each other, and let the strong tenderly nurse the weak into strength, and let those who can see guide the blind until they can see the way for themselves. -Brigham Young Scripture Study: Ether 4-10 Mark and Ponder: Moroni 7:16-17 Study from the topical guide and other reference materials all you can on the subject of CHANGE. Use the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price as primary references. Have you received the mighty change in your heart since you have been answering the invitation to Come Unto Christ by studying His words and teachings? Day 39 Day 40 Final 2 Samuel 22:2-4 Thought for the day: I will go forward. I will smile at the rage of the tempest, and ride fearlessly and triumphantly across the boisterous ocean of circumstance and the testimony of Jesus will light up a lamp that will guide my vision through the portals of immortality. - Eliza R Snow Matthew 7:7-8 Thought for the day: It is not by marvelous manifestations unto us that we shall be established in the truth, but it is by humility and faithful obedience to the commandments and laws of God. Joseph F. Smith Has your study of the Savior and His words and teachings helped you to come closer to Christ? Ponder His love for you, and His role in your life. As you do, remember all that He has done for you to make it possible for you to return and be with Him and our Father in Heaven for eternity. We hope that this 40 day study guide will aid in your personal scripture study as you seek to come closer to your Savior. As you read and ponder each scripture, it may help you to write down a few thoughts in a journal.
