Hayden's Primary Talk

Hayden gave a talk in Primary last Sunday. It was only his second time giving a talk. His topic was how his family can be blessed by the Holy Ghost. We wrote the talk together and I asked Hayden lots of questions and tried to get as much 'out of him' as possible. He did a good job of delivering it and took it seriously. He spoke clearly and tried his best to read most of his talk. He made such a good effort that we made a cake for him after church. He knew beforehand that he would get a cake if he did well...food is always such a great incentive for boys! I was a little afraid that once it was time to stand in front of the podium he would get shy or act silly, but he must have been picturing the cake in his head!

THE HOLY GHOST CAN BLESS ME AND MY FAMILY
by Hayden Nizetich (7 next month)
The Holy Ghost is a little voice that whispers to you, or a good feeling in your heart. The Holy Ghost talks to you when you say a prayer, when you're sad and when you need to make a good decision.
The Holy Ghost can help me, and also my mum and dad, and my two brothers Ashton and Noah.
One time the Holy Ghost helped me and Ashton to feel better. We were really sad when our friends Alex and Sehyeon moved to Korea. The Holy Ghost helped us not to be too sad and it helped us to make new friends.
My Dad works for New Zealand Blood. The Holy Ghost can help my dad at work by helping him to find people who want to give blood and save people's lives.
The Holy Ghost can help my mum by telling her what to do when she doesn't know what to do.
The Holy Ghost can bless and help me and my family, and everyone in Primary, if we remember to listen to the little whisper and choose the right.

That's really lovely, good job to you and Hayden =)

I didn't know you also believe in the Holy Spirit - well I guess all christians do, but some christians/churches believe He is more 'active' and manifests Himself more, than others.

Gian reckons he has seen Jesus AND God in his bedroom one night. He also thinks he's seen a tall black shadowy figure of a man in our house twice!! ewwwww. He also saw an 'angel' at a friends house when he was two. I'll tell you about it next time ..
