Oh I am not just  going on a trip, I am going on a journey to remember the promises that I made to heavenly father when I was baptized.

Oh this suitcase isn’t going to work. I NEED A BIGGER ONE FOR A JOURNEY. I need different stuff now too. Oooh I need to hurry, will you guys help me find what I need for my journey to help me remember the promises we make when we are baptized? SR- to help me remember the promises we made when we were baptized?

SUITCASE # 2

Ensign- Reading good books and filling our minds with good things will help us keep our baptismal covenants.

Scriptures with scripture- Feast upon the words of Christ (goes with “Food”) the scriptures will definitely help us not be spiritually hungry

Modest clothes- (Goes with clothes) We promise to wear clothing that prepares us to go to the temple.

White clothes

Parents and teachers picture- They help us see what we need to do to get back to Heavenly Father and help remind us of the promises we make

White towel-  I want to be wrapped in the warmth of the Holy ghost

Water- Baptized by immersion

Prayer picture- We need to talk to Heavenly Father through prayer. We can’t talk to him on the cell phone

Sacrament cup- We need to take the sacrament each week and remind us to remember Jesus Christ and we promise to keep his commandments.

Plan of Salvation – This is a map of our lives before we came to earth and after

Good words- We need to keep our mouths spiritually clean just like the toothbrush and toothpaste keeps our mouths clean.

Ticket- Can we buy a ticket to our baptism and if we have had our baptism already do we have a reserved seat in the Celestial kingdom? Be cool but it doesn’t work that way.

Movie- We need to watch good programs to help us

Calendar with Sunday crossed off- We need to keep the Sabbath Day(Sunday) holy by doing things that bring the spirit.

Tithing slip with money- I need to pay one tenth of what I earn to

Heart- I promise to love the Lord

Missionary tag- I promise to be a missionary and teach the gospel to all.
