Study the Principle of Learning: Press Forward

Fetaomi Atu i Luma

With God’s help, I can press forward even when I face obstacles.

Faatasi ai ma le fesoasoani a le Atua, e mafai ai ona ou uunai atu i luma e tusa lava pe ou te feagai ma faafitauli.

Tatou te feagai uma lava ma luitau i le olaga. O nisi taimi o o tatou luitau e faigata ai ona ausia a tatou sini. O Nifae, o se perofeta ma se taitai i le Tusi a Mamona, na oo i le tele o luitau. Sa ia faaaluina lona olaga atoa e aoao atu ma auauna atu i ona tagata. Sa ia iloaina o le a latou feagai ma luitau faigata, ma sa manao o ia e fesoasoani ia i latou ia iloa le auala e finafinau ai pea. Na aoao mai Nifae:

“Fetaomi atu i luma ma le tumau ia Keriso, ma se susulu atoatoa o le faamoemoe, ma le alofa i le Atua ma tagata uma” (2 Nifae 31:20).

E mafai foi ona e fetaomi atu i luma. O le “fetaomi atu luma ma le tumau ia Keriso” o lona uiga e mafai ona e taumafai pea, faalagolago ia Iesu Keriso, e tusa lava pe faigata mea uma. E te talitonu o le a Ia faamanuia au taumafaiga e tusa lava pe faigata mea uma pe e te faia foi ni mea sese. Mo se faataitaiga, atonu e te mātauina o loo e faia ni mea sesē pe a e taumafai e tautala i le Igilisi. Atonu e faigata ona e manatuaina ni upu fou. E mafai ona e fetaomi atu i luma ma faaauau pea ona faataitai i aso uma, ma le talitonu o le a fesoasoani o Ia ia te oe e aoao. E tusa lava po o a luitau e te feagai, e mafai ona e fetaomi atu i luma ma le faatuatua.

Ponder

• O a ni auala e mafai ona e “fetaomi ai i luma” i le aoaoina o le Igilisi?

• O le a se mea e fesoasoani ia te oe e taumafai ai pea pe a faigata mea uma?

Memorize Vocabulary

Aoao le uiga ma le faaleoina o upu taitasi a o lei faia lau talanoaga faalevaega. Taumafai e fatu ni kata e fesoasoani ia te oe e tauloto ai upu fou. E mafai ona e faaaogaina pepa po o se polokalama.
