These original activity sheets that align with the Come, Follow Me
lessons each week are totally free and easy to print from a Google Doc
file. They're designed to print double-sided 2-to-a-page and are perfect for
introducing or reviewing the concepts from the Come, Follow Me lesson.
Our home ward hands them out along with the sacrament programs on
Sundays, others use them in their family or Sunday School lessons. I
hope they add an element of fun to your gospel learning and help to engage even the most reluctant learners. Make sure to
come back each week for the latest!
This activity sheet is based on the CFM lesson for March 8th and contains a coloring sheet, crossword puzzle, and fill-in-the-blank scripture.

"Let God Prevail" I
I love President Nelson's talk, "Let God Prevail," and have found myself pondering over what that means in my life many times since he delivered it. As with most concepts, it's easier said than done, but in retrospect I have to admit that God's plan is always better than my own.
If you're looking for some ideas for teaching a lesson, here are the lesson notes I have from when we taught it to a youth Sunday School class back in 2022. It's a very loose plan, so forgive any errors, but perhaps it can be helpful.
LESSONS WE CAN LEARN FROM JACOB'S STORY:
1. God keeps his promises
2. We are better with Christ than on our own
LESSONS WE CAN LEARN FROM JACOB'S LADDER:
Lesson #1: GOD USES IMPERFECT PEOPLE TO ACCOMPLISH GREAT THINGS
God sees us where we are, meets us there, and lifts us to be better
1 Nephi 11:16-22 - Condescension of Christ
Lesson #2: God’s Purpose and Plan Is Always Better than Ours
Lesson #3: God Wants to Get Our Attention
Lesson #4: God Wants Trust and Obedience
QUESTIONS TO PONDER
1. Why is it important that we are of the House of Israel? (We are participants in the Abrahamic covenant, Our posterity will continue to be blessed, We are walking with Christ and can help others be blessed)
2. What does it mean to let God prevail in your lives? Think of specific examples.
QUOTES FROM "LET GOD PREVAIL"
QUOTE #1–“If you have sincere questions about the gospel or the Church, as you choose to let God prevail, you will be led to find and understand the absolute, eternal truths that will guide your life and help you stay firmly on the covenant path.
When you are faced with temptation—even if the temptation comes when you are exhausted or feeling alone or misunderstood—imagine the courage you can muster as you choose to let God prevail in your life and as you plead with Him to strengthen you.
When your greatest desire is to let God prevail, to be part of Israel, so many decisions become easier. So many issues become nonissues! You know how best to groom yourself. You know what to watch and read, where to spend your time, and with whom to associate. You know what you want to accomplish. You know the kind of person you really want to become.” President Nelson
QUOTE #2–”Now, my dear brothers and sisters, it takes both faith and courage to let God prevail. It takes persistent, rigorous spiritual work to repent and to put off the natural man through the Atonement of Jesus Christ.19 It takes consistent, daily effort to develop personal habits to study the gospel, to learn more about Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ, and to seek and respond to personal revelation.” President Nelson
SCRIPTURE LIST:
Proverbs 3:5-6– Trust in the Lord
Genesis 27:41-43– How Esau felt about Jacob
Genesis 28:10-15 –all about Jacob’s dream with the ladder
Gen. 32:28-30–Jacob’s name is changed
Gen. 33:1-4, 8-10–Jacob and Esau are reunited!
