** How can I exercise and develop these gifts and the gift of Seership? ... What does one DO with a gift like this? It doesn't seem like I've accomplished anything really important with it so far, so what would someone with this kind of gift DO for the Lord?

Practice, use it and develop it. Meditate with purpose. Have a sincere question about anything!

I mean anything. I enjoy learning about physics and have used the gift to learn all sorts of things including what Einstein called the Unified Field Theory. He searched for it his whole life after coming up with E=MC2, but he never found it.

You can learn about politics/Leaders, secret combinations, art, math, history, health, etc.

When my father-in-law (and best friend) was diagnosed with cancer, I received was able to see what was happening in his body. I told him what he needed to do and what challenges he was going to face doing it. Everything was dead on. Unfortunately, he didn't take my advice and he died. They fought the symptoms and not the cause. So, they killed the symptoms (High white blood cell count) which were protecting him from the root cause (slowly spreading infection). When his blood cell count dropped, his body was no longer able to fight the infection and he died of sepsis.

Really, what if you could learn or see anything?!? Unlimited information. This is one of the gifts that all Gods posses.

Listen to what Joseph Knight recorded about Joseph Smith's first interaction with the urim and thummim who said:
"...he (Joseph Smith) seamed to think more of the glasses or the urim and thummim than he did of the plates for says he, I can see anything. They are Marvelous."

A seer can translate ancient texts, but there is so much more to it...


** So do ALL Seers have that gift or is it just one of the things that would fit into the category of Seership?

It is the same process. You can read about it in the D&C, Somewhere. Joseph was trying to teach someone else who wanted to translate some of the book of Mormon.(Can anyone find that? I don't have time to search for it right now.)

I make it sound really easy, but it actually takes work and time. You have to really study it out in your mind. Ponder it. And focus on your spirit bodies senses. I think you could make it very technical but it is very natural. We have been doing it as spirits for a very long time. Our physical bodies get in the way and need to be calmed, patient and focused. Some people have used things to distract the physical body, like automatic writing, put it to sleep (meditation), give it some mindless task to do, etc.

Learn to see without your physical eyes. Go back to experiences you have already had and review them. They will teach you tons!

Sorry if I am asking so many questions and sound so clueless - but about this - I really am! Embarrassed But I'd really like to understand these things about myself and as I said - strengthen the spiritual gifts I've been given and learn what God intends for me to do with them!

Jules

I don't mind your questions. Its nice to be on the teaching side now and again. Smile
