Patriarchal Blessings - Explain that as worthy members of the Church, we are each entitled to a patriarchal blessing that is given from the Lord to us individually. When we receive a patriarchal blessing, we are told many of the blessings Heavenly Father has in store for us in this life and in eternity. These blessings will be ours if we live true and faithful lives. Patriarchal blessings often identify our spiritual gifts. Knowing these gifts can help us determine our purpose in life. (See D&C 46:10–12.) We are sometimes warned to avoid certain evil influences that our Father knows will tempt us. By knowing the promised blessings, our spiritual gifts, and the warnings, we can more wisely make decisions throughout our lives.

QUOTES:

Bishop H. Burke Peterson said, “Do you think for a moment that Heavenly Father would have sent one of His children to this earth by accident, without the possibility of a significant work to perform? …“My dear friends, you are a royal generation. You were preserved to come to the earth in this time for a special purpose. Not just a few of you, but all of you. There are things for each of you to do that no one else can do as well as you. … If you will let Him, I testify that our Father in Heaven will walk with you through the journey of life and inspire you to know your special purpose here” (“Your Life Has a Purpose,” New Era, May 1979, pp. 4–5; italics added).
“If you understand the great plan of happiness and follow it, what goes on in the world will not determine your happiness. (Ensign, May 1994, p 20) He also wrote: “If we have come to know our Father’s plan, we are never completely lost…. With a knowledge of the plan comes also the determination to live the principles leading to eternal life.” (“Our Father’s Plan,” p. 60) Truly, understanding the Plan of Salvation helps us find peace and hope when life is hard." - Elder Boyd K. Packer.
