Primary Missionary

Today for sharing time I was able to teach about “becoming a missionary”. I read Elder David A. Bednar’s talk to prepare for this. It is such a great message. He talked about how our actions and thoughts should always be as a missionaries. I had an ah-ha moment as I taught today. I was telling the children that we are always a missionary no matter how young or how old we are. As I was telling them this, I thought about how I am a little primary missionary – standing right there teaching the gospel of Jesus Christ to these beautiful children. I am proud of that, and grateful I have been trusted to do this. We have been given such simple yet amazing things to teach these children, and they are ready to listen, hear and receive these messages. They are like sponges soaking this stuff up and ready with all of the right answers. One thing about kids that is so limiting is that they know the right answers but don’t always perform the right answers- they need lots of practice I guess. You know what? We all do!
