Bubba's Primary Talk

The stories of the prophets in the scriptures teach me what I should do.  

Jonah was a prophet. Heavenly Father told him to go and teach some people Jonah was afraid of.  Jonah thought that if he went and did what Heavenly Father asked him to do that he would be killed.  He ran away and was eaten by a big fish.  While he was in the fish, Jonah repented and Heavenly Father told Jonah to have faith.  Jonah went to Ninevah and taught the people he was afraid of.  Heavenly Father blessed the people Jonah taught, and they repented.  Jonah learned that when we do what we are supposed to do, Heavenly Father blesses us and keeps us safe.  

Yesterday, my brother and I were fighting.  My Dad told me I needed to come in and tell him what we were doing.  I was scared.  I thought he might eat me like a fish.  I remembered that Jonah was blessed when he was obedient and I went to talk to my Dad.  My Dad helped us stop fighting and he was proud of me for taking responsibility and being obedient.  And he didn't eat me.  I know that the stories of the prophets in the scriptures help us know what to do in our lives.  Heavenly Father blesses us when we are obedient and he keeps us safe, even when we are scared.  

In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
