Church Talk

I can't believe how grown up Hailey is. I find myself looking at her and wondering where the time has gone. She has given prayer and scripture in primary, but today was her first talk. She did an amazing job, and I was super proud of her.

Before there was a sun, a moon, or even ground to sit on, we all lived in heaven with our heavenly parents. We were spirit children, and we didn't have physical bodies yet. We loved Heavenly Father. And He loved us so much that He wanted us to grow up to be like Him and live with Him forever. He wanted us to know everything He knew. But how could we learn all that? Heavenly Father had a wonderful plan. He gathered us all together and told us about his plan. He would create a beautiful world with rivers, mountains, flowers, and animals. Then He would give each of us a chance to come to earth and have a physical body. On earth we wouldn't be able to remember Heavenly Father, so we would need to learn about Him. The scriptures, the prophets, and our parents teach us about Him and His plan. Through them, we can prepare ourselves to live with Him and our families forever. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
