Tomorrow Small Bugz is giving a talk in Primary.  We were given the topic but he wanted to know why it was not on Mothers since it is Mother's Day.  He got to choose if he gave a talk or read a scripture and he chose the talk - I was shocked.

Here is is talk


The Principles and Ordinances of the Gospel Lead Me to Jesus

Following Jesus is important because he was the only person that was worthy to return to live with Heavenly Father. If we want to return to live with Heavenly Father, we need to be more like Jesus. Even though we are not perfect, the Atonement of Christ will help us as long as we try to be like Jesus.

The principles and ordinances of the gospel teach us how to follow Jesus and to be more like him. The first principle of the gospel, faith, teaches us that we should learn about Jesus, believe the things he said, and try to do them. When we learn about Jesus and his teachings, we often find things about ourselves that are not like Jesus. When we try to change our lives to be more like Jesus, we are repenting. The Atonement lets our mistakes be washed away when we repent so that we can be clean like Jesus.

Ordinances, like baptism and the sacrament, let us make promises with Heavenly Father to show that we will follow Jesus and his teachings. In return, Heavenly Father promises to help us do better, by forgiving our mistakes and giving us his help through the Gift of the Holy Ghost. When we keep our promises with Heavenly Father, he always blesses us.

I have felt the Holy Ghost as I try to keep the commandments. The Holy Ghost has helped me to feel comfort when I have been hurt. I am happier when I keep the commandments and follow Jesus. I know that Heavenly Father and Jesus live and love all of us.

He says he will be nervous speaking in front of all those people.  Just wait until he has to speak in sacrament meeting.
