Thought: Communication with our Father in Heaven is not a trivial matter. It is a sacred privilege. It is based upon eternal, unchanging principles. We receive help from our Father in Heaven in response to our faith, obedience, and the proper use of agency. (How to Obtain Revelation and Inspiration for Your Personal Life: Elder Richard G. Scott)
Object Lesson: Hold up an empty paper towel tube and talk through it. Then stuff the tube with dirty rags (representing sin and other distractions). When you talk through the tube, your family will have a hard time hearing you. Talk about the importance of keeping our lives pure and making sure that we take time to listen for the promptings.

Video: The Spirit of Revelation
Lesson Activity: Prepare this game about Revelation and Personal Revelation and play together as a family reading the quotes and messages along the way!
This Week's Challenge: Challenge your family members to keep themselves as free from distractions and sin as possible this week and then as they pray for inspiration encourage them to pay close attention to the way that the Spirit communicates with them. Remind them about what Elder Bednar discusses in the video from this lesson.
