The 6 Be's and your fingers

Thumb - be grateful -- we are fortunate to have a thumb that has opposite
motion

Pointer finger -- be smart -- motion from your forehead like you have a
bright idea

Middle finger -- be clean -- don't use this in a bad way

Ring finger -- be true -- this is where you wear your true loves ring

Pinky -- be humble -- the smallest of all the fingers

Point to palm -- be prayerful -- put hands together

This exercise helps to remember with no paper at all!

Thanks to Rina M. for sending this in, after she had heard about it.

God Sent Christ To Help People

One way to remember the 6 B's is by this saying:

G = Grateful

S = Smart

C = Clean

T = True

H = Humble

P = Prayerful

I was reading the 6’ Be’s page and thought of how to include the 9 in

God Sent Christ to help people, Progress in Spirit.

Thought I would pass it along. Jenn

6 B's from President Hinckley

1. Be grateful. Express appreciation to everyone who does us a favor or assists us in any way.

2. Be smart. The Lord wants us to train our minds and hands to become an influence for good.

3. Be clean. We live in a world filled with filth and sleaze. We cannot afford to let it touch us. We should not be disrespectful of the body which the Lord has given us.

4. Be true. Let us be loyal to the Church under all circumstances. The authorities of this Church will lead us in paths of happiness.

5. Be humble. The meek and the humble are those who are teachable.

6. Be prayerful. Look to the Lord for understanding and guidance, and walk according to His precepts and commandments.

Be Grateful

Walk with gratitude in your hearts, my dear friends. Be thankful for the wonderful blessings which are yours. Be grateful for the tremendous opportunities that you have. Be thankful to your parents, who care so very much about you and who have worked so very hard to provide for you. Let them know that you are grateful. Say thank you to your mother and your father. Say thank you to your friends. Say thank you to your teachers. Express appreciation to everyone who does you a favor or assists you in any way. Thank the Lord for His goodness to you.

Be Smart

The Lord wants you to educate your minds and hands, whatever your chosen field. Whether it be repairing refrigerators, or the work of a skilled surgeon, you must train yourselves. Seek for the best schooling available. Become a workman of integrity in the world that lies ahead of you.I repeat, you will bring honor to the Church and you will be generously blessed because of that training.

Be Clean

Avoid evil talk. Do not take the name of the Lord in vain. . . .Choose your friends carefully. . . . While you should be friendly with all people, select with great care those whom you wish to have close to you. . . .

Be clean. Don’t waste your time in destructive entertainment. . . .

How truly beautiful is a well-groomed young woman who is clean in body and mind. She is a daughter of God in whom her Eternal Father can take pride. How handsome is a young man who is well groomed. He is a son of God, deemed worthy of holding the holy priesthood of God.

He does not need tattoos or earrings on or in his body. The First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve are all united in counseling against these things. . . .There is no need for any Latter-day Saint boy or girl, young man or young woman, to even try [drugs]. Stay clean from these mind-altering and habit-forming addictions.

Be True

Be loyal to the Church under all circumstances. I make you a promise that the authorities of this Church will never lead you astray. They will lead you in paths of happiness. . . .Be true to your own convictions. You know what is right, and you know what is wrong. You know when you are doing the proper thing. You know when you are giving strength to the right cause. Be loyal. Be faithful. Be true.

Be Humble

The Lord has said, “Be thou humble; and the Lord thy God shall lead thee by the hand, and give thee answer to thy prayers” (Doctrine and Covenants 112:10). . . .

I believe the meek and the humble are those who are teachable. They are willing to learn. They are willing to listen to the whisperings of the still, small voice for guidance in their lives. They place the wisdom of the Lord above their own wisdom.

Be Prayerful

You need His help, and you know that you need His help. You cannot do it alone. You will come to realize that and recognize that more and more as the years pass. So live that in good conscience you can speak with the Lord. Get on your knees and thank Him for His goodness to you and express to Him the righteous desires of your hearts. The miracle of it all is that He hears. He responds. He answers— not always as we might wish He would answer, but there is no question in my mind that He answers.

(“A Prophet’s Counsel and Prayer for Youth,” Ensign, January 2001, pages 2–11.)

FHE Lesson's on Pres. Hinckley's 6 Be's

PDF Files/FHE/6 Be's FHE Lessons.pdf

I am having a problem with this link opening on the internet, while I work this out, if you want to see this, you will need to right click on your mouse and then "save target as" make sure you know where you saved it to, then you should be able to open it offline, from the folder you saved it in.

These lessons were created for a Home Family and Personal Enrichment Meeting by sisters in the Eastern Avenue Ward, Sacramento, California East Stake. After the overview lesson on the Six Be's, the sisters divided into two groups and split the rest of the time between two rooms. In those rooms the sisters who created these lessons each took between five and seven minutes to present one thing from their lesson. All of the sisters went home with copies of all seven lessons and stickers to put in their scriptures (see the Six Be's lesson).
