Stella shared this talk in Primary today. Todd helped her by reading it to her. She was sweet, and oh so happy to be standing in front of her Junior Primary friends and retelling her experience.
I want to tell you a story of how I chose the right by living the gospel principals.
I was playing with some of my friend in the sandbox at my house. We were having a lot of fun digging holes and making sand castles. I wanted to make it rain so I started to throw sand in the air and it got in my friend's hair. She did not like having sand in her hair and asked me to stop. I said I was sorry and stopped throwing the sand. Later, when I told my mom she said that what I did was called repentance. By stopping, feeling bad and saying ‘sorry’ I was repenting and following the example of Jesus Christ.
I know that by repenting we can all be happier and be forgiven of our sins so we can all return to live with our Heavenly Father.
In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
