DIVINE NATURE

"Be partakers of the divine nature...giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity."
2 Peter 1: 4-7

For Divine Nature we chose to focus on experiences 3 and 6.

Experience 3: 
Make your home life better. For two weeks, make a special effort to strengthen your relationship with a roommate by showing love through your actions. Refrain from judging, criticizing, or speaking unkindly, and watch for positive qualities in that roommate. Write notes of encouragement, pray for this roommate, find ways to be helpful, and verbally express your love. Share your experiences and the divine qualities you’ve discovered with that roommate or someone else.

 Experience 6: 
Develop your divine qualities. Read Matthew 5:9; John 15:12; Galatians 5:22-23; Colossians 3:12-17; 1 John 4:21; and Moroni 7:44-48. Memorize your favorite verse from one of these passages. Identify the divine qualities mentioned in all these scriptures and list them in your journal. Select one quality, and for two weeks strive to make it a part of your daily life. Record your progress and experiences in your journal.
