mosiah 17: 1 - 20

have you ever seen someone stand up for what is right when it was difficult for them to do?  what happened?  will you be true to God in all circumstances?

--> a few weeks ago, in my first grade class we had 3 minutes to kill at the end of the day, so i put on a "just dance" song where the kids follow along with the dancer on the screen.  they were halfway through the song when a little boy came up and said the following: "miss ence, i don't think i should be watching this because the girl is immodest."  i looked at the main girl dancer and she had a tank top belly shirt on.  didn't even cross my mind that that would be offensive to 6 year olds.  i quickly changed the song and we went on our merry ways.

the day after this event, i got a thank you note from his parents.  i felt so embarrassed that i had even put the movie on, but was grateful for these parents for teaching their children at a young age that immodesty isn't something that should be looked at.  oh, stay innocent forever!
