Study the Principle of Learning: Take Responsibility

’A rave i te hōpoi’a

I have the power to choose, and I am responsible for my own learning.

E mana tō’u ’ia mā’iti, ’e ’o vau iho te tia’au nō tō’u iho ha’api’ira’a mai.

E tamari’i ’oe nā te Atua ma te mana nō te mā’iti ’e nō te rave nā roto ia ’oe iho. E parauhia teie mana te ti’amāra’a nō te mā’iti. E peropheta i roto i te Buka a Moromona, ’o Lehi, tei ha’api’i ia tātou ē e ’ere tātou mai te mau ’ōfa’i ’o tē tīa’i nei i te hō’ē ta’ata nō te taui ’e nō te fa’anu’u ia tātou. E mau ti’a’au tātou ’o tē nehenehe e fa’aoti nō tātou iho e aha tā tātou e ti’aturi, e aha tā tātou e rave ’e ’o vai tā tātou e riro mai. ’Ua ha’api’i Lehi :

« [Nā te Atua] i hāmani i te mau mea ato’a […] te mau mea ’ia ’ohipa, ’e te mau mea ’ia ’ohipahia […] Nō reira, ’ua fa’ati’a te Fatu te Atua i te ta’ata nei ’ia rave ’oia mai te au i tōna iho hina’aro » (2 Nephi 2:14, 16).

E nehenehe ’oe e mā’iti ’ia ha’api’i mai ’e ’ia ha’amaita’i atu ā. E nehenehe tā ’oe ’orometua ’e te tahi atu mau pīahi i roto i tā ’oe pupu ’āparaura’a e tauturu mai ia ’oe, terā rā i te pae hope’a, nā tā ’oe mau mā’itira’a e fa’atupu i te tauira’a rahi i ni’a i tā ’oe ha’api’ira’a. E nehenehe ’oe e ’ohipa nō ’oe iho ’ia ha’api’ipi’i i te reo peretāne i te mau mahana atoʼa. ’Ia tupu ana’e mai te mau fifi, ’a ’imi i te mau rāve’a. ’Ua hōro’ahia ia ’oe te ti’amāra’a ’ia mā’iti—te mana nō ’ō mai i te Atua ra nō te rave. E nehenehe ’oe e amo i te hōpoi’a nō tā ’oe iho ha’api’ira’a.

Ponder

• E aha te aura’a nō ’oe ’ia riro ’ei « ti’a’au » ’e ’ia amo i te hōpoi’a nō tā ’oe iho ha’api’ira’a ?

• E aha te mau mea ’o tē ha’afifi i te ha’api’ira’a i te reo peretāne i te mau mahana ato’a ?

• E aha tā ’oe e nehenehe e rave nō te ’ohipa ’eiaha ’ia ’ohipahia i roto i te ha’api’ira’a i te reo peretāne i te mau mahana ato’a ?
