Last night we were learning about synergy and how it related to the scriptures. Shaunton talked to the kids about how toothpicks can demonstrate this. He asked Jaxen if he thought he could brake one toothpick in half. Jaxen agreed that he could. How about 5 toothpicks together? Jaxen thought he probably wouldn't be able to do that as easily.
We talked about how individually we are weak, but together we are made stronger. This is true as a family and a church.
Ember, who is absent-mindedly coloring (or so I thought), looks up thoughtfully and shares her version of synergy.
E: So, we are like the toothpicks and Satan is trying to break us. (See, they do listen and take it in...even if it doesn't seem like it at the time!)
That is so true. If we stick together as family and church we have more power against him then we do standing against him alone.

Yepper! And as they get older and have peers, the better their friends are and hold their toothpick stack together, the better equipped they are to fight off the attacks as well. Sounds like a YW lesson!
Ember and Tasha take on Satan! The fighting duo could probably do it!
Good for you! I never get to see benifits like that cuz... I never see it through that long... na anyway I love that Ember keeps you on your toes! She is great!
