Everyone Enjoy Keely's Talk - She Wanted To Share It Because She Wrote It All By Herself And Is So Proud - She Did a Wonderful Job :)
Heavenly Father and Jesus love me and will always
be there for me in times of need.
Every commandment means something good and if we obey the commandments we will get to live with H.F. and Jesus again.
Commandments are rules that H.F. made for us to do here on Earth and obey so we can be happy and he can bless us.
When I obey I feel closer to H.F. and Jesus. As I grow closer to them it makes me want to do more of the right things. When I feel closest to Jesus it is like he is right by me and I want to do nothing bad ever again, doing good and right always.
Following the commandments makes you feel happy and good about yourself which makes you want to obey more often.
Jesus wants us to obey the commandments because he wants us to live with him again after we die. Jesus is right next to us when we obey, helping and guiding us to the next step in life.
H.F. gave us the choice to choose if we want to be wicked or righteous. When you do what is right you show respect and your love for him.
It makes me feel really, really happy when I obey. I like doing the right things because it makes my parents happy and also makes others happy because when they need help, I help them and it makes them feel loved and cared for.
H.F. knows that we will not be perfect. He only asks that we do our best. He is patient with us as we repent and try to do the right.
When you do what is wrong you are showing that you care more about yourself than others or Jesus and that you have given Satan control of you. Not obeying will make you feel bad about yourself and unhappy.
Obeying the commandments will help you feel closer to H.F. and Jesus just like it does for me.
The same Sunday Asher was asked to give the scripture - which was the 1st Article of Faith - he memorized it perfectly before we went...As he was reciting it though all the kids got excited cause they knew it and repeated each line after him - I was so proud because all he wanted to do was make the kids laugh (he is definitely an entertainer/comedian) but I had told him not to before (he was already thinking up jokes to tell them and practicing on me), so he tried so so hard to focus and be good - he said only what he was supposed to and hurried back to his seat with a huge smile :)
