Sister Carole M. Stephens told a story about her 3 year old granddaughter. Tell the story and why she told it.
Sister Stephens' 3 year old granddaughter kept getting unbuckled and standing up as they were driving to her home. She had to pull over several times and re-buckle her, each time without. Finally, after prayer, she felt prompted to teach the little girl. She taught her that seat belts are there to keep us safe, and she wanted her granddaughter to be safe. When her granddaughter knew that she loved her and wanted her to be safe, she stayed in her carseat. The gospel principle is that seat belts are like commandments. Sometimes we feel like they are restrictive and limit our freedom, but really they are there because God loves us enough to protect us. When we obey the commandments, we are showing God that we love him in return.
