A COVENANT RELATIONSHIP A covenant is a sacred agreement between God and a person or group of people. God sets specific conditions, and He promises to bless us as we obey those conditions. When we choose not to keep covenants, we cannot receive the blessings, and in some instances we suffer a penalty as a consequence of our disobedience. - LDS. Org

Father, where shall I serve today? And my love flowed warm and free. Then He pointed me out a tiny spot, And said, “Tend that for me. ” I answered quickly, “Oh, not that. Why, no one would ever see, No matter how well my work was done. Not that little place for me!” And the word He spoke, it was not stern, He answered me tenderly, “Ah, little one, search that heart of thine; Art thou serving them or me? Nazareth was just a little place, And so was Galilee. ” - author unknown
