I Have Agency

Here is a picture of Luke is his 'missionary' suit and holding his new scripture bag that he received from Grandma Bear-Bear and Grandpa Pop-Pop.

Luke volunteered to give a talk in Sharing Time this week. Awesome news - we were so on time that Luke actually had time to sit on the chairs at the front of the room and be an example of Reverence for everyone else.
He did such a good job. Here is his talk:

In 2nd Nephi 2:27 it says, "Wherefore, men...are free to choose liberty and eternal life, through the great Mediator of all men, or to choose captivity and death."
Heavenly Father Has given me agency, the ability to choose right from wrong and to act for myself...the right to direct my life is one of God's greatest gifts to me. While here on earth, I am being proven to see if I will use my agency to show my love for God by keeping His commandments. The Holy Ghost can guide me. I show my love to Heavenly Father by sharing with my brother and playing nicely with him.
I am responsible for the choices I make. God is mindful of me and will help me make good choices, even if my family and friends use their agency in ways that are not right. I can be obedient and set an example for others to follow.
