Family Home Evening

Click to make bigger.


Zac taught family home evening tonight.  Complete with the above illustration, which he did himself as he explained his lesson.  I had asked him to make sure it was tailored to meet the needs of his little sisters' understanding of the scriptures, and I think he did a wonderful job.

If you can't tell, or don't know, the above is his depiction of the story about the iron rod and the tree of life in Lehi's dream.  He illustrated that the fog we go through allows us to be tempted, but holding to the rod (the word of God) allows us to say NO.  He was adorable as he explained to his little sisters that when we don't say no to temptation, we end up like the people at the bottom of the page: grumpy, because things don't go right without guidance from the Spirit.  It was simple and wonderful, the way he interacted with them and taught them his perspective on the story.

I LOVE it when I see the testimony of my child as she teaches her sisters. It is so good to know that they not only have learned something, but that it is really part of them!
