My path to Self-Reliance
My path to Self-Reliance
Self-reliance is "the ability, commitment, and effort to provide the spiritual and temporal necessities of life for self and family." - Handbook 2; 6.1.1
The Lord has declared, "It is my purpose to provide for my saints" (D&C 104:15). This revelation is a promise from the Lord that He is ready to extend to you the blessings of self-reliance. We invite you to diligently study and apply these principles. As you do so you will be blessed with greater hope, peace, and progress.
[Self-Reliance groups] help you to learn and put into practice principles of faith, education, hard work, and trust in the Lord that will better enable you to receive the temporal blessings promised by the Lord.
