LOVE & FORGIVENESS

One important lesson our Prophet wants us to learn is the lesson of forgiveness. Today Sister Donaldson asked us to put a pebble in our shoe and try to walk around with it...ouch! It wasn't very comfortable to have a rock in our shoe. That's how it can feel if we keep bad feelings in our hearts...it can bother us and make us uncomfortable until we get rid of it. Once we took the pebbles out of our shoes, we felt much better! She also demonstrated that holding a grudge can be much like carrying a heavy armful of books and with each moment we stay angry and unforgiving, it becomes heavier and heavier! She helped us understand that if we want our burdens to feel light we must show love and forgiveness and not hold grudges against others. Then, we drew pictures of hearts and wrote letters to show our love for others.

What can we do to Follow the Prophet?

Today, Sister Lopez taught us about all the things we can do to follow the Prophet. We talked about things like sharing the gospel, obeying the Word of Wisdom, showing kindness to others, and paying our tithing. We learned that the Prophet asks us to do these things to help us to be happier on this earth and to be closer to our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.
