So with all this prop 8 and eLection stuff happening I've been online researching. There was an ad put out against our church about prop 8 (youtube home invasion). Anyway after youtubing it I was youtube surfing and seeing tons of these anti mormon videos that have been posted. Talking about and showing sacred things, but with a faLse twist to them. I was infuriated with what I was seeing and couldn't beLieve some of the comments peopLe had written about mormons. I know it's the Last Days and this has been taught to us that we wouLd endure percecution, but I didn't think it wouLd effect me this way. So I was on the computer and Jaida asked, "Mommy what are you doing?"
I said,"Oh, just peopLe are saying some bad things"
and she must have seen some pictures of the tempLe cuz she asked,"About church?"
And I Looked at her and said,"Yes."
Then she Looked puzzLed and distraught and asked,"Why?"
I didn't know how to expLain it to her cuz I can hardLy understand myseLf so I said,"I don't know they're just stupid and they don't know."
And in her childLike innocense she says,"That makes me sad. Church is good, and some peopLe don't go to church, but if you don't go to church you don't Learn, and that makes Jesus sad."
I didn't have to expLain anything. She expLained it to me. This is just the beginning. Our precious babes are the ones we have to teach and prepare for these Last Days. My testimony has onLy grown from seeing those videos and I feeL sad for them. We have to stay cLose to the iron rod and teach our chiLdren too.

Oh wow! That is so true! Out of the mouthes of babes! Jaida couldn't have said it any better. If we ever have needed our Savior in our lives anymore than in this day and age. We need to hold tighter to that iron rod than we ever have. I love you. Thank you for sharing this and your testimony. Love, mom
oh sweet Jaida..she's going to be just fine in this Crazy world
I totally agree! At first glance, all of the terrible things being said about us makes me alittle sick, but there's a strange undercurrent of peace beneath it all. We can all take comfort in the fact that we have KNOWN this was coming. We've been warned, and we will be protected, lead, and loved by our Father in Heaven throughout the years of trial that are to come. I guess, in a way, it's our turn to be the pioneers now.
