“Following Jesus,” Friend, Oct. 2013, 31
Following Jesus
Be Loyal
Jesus Christ said, “I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you” (John 14:18).
Jesus was a good friend and family member. Even when things were hard for Him, He remembered to take care of the people He loved. Before He died, He told one of His disciples to take care of His mother (see John 19:26–27). He also taught His disciples about the Holy Ghost and promised them peace. He said, “Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (John 14:27).
This Month’s Challenges:
Challenge 1: Look for chances to show others that you love them, even if you’re busy or grumpy.
Challenge 2: When your friends and family members make a mistake, say kind things instead of making them feel bad.
Challenge 3: If you see someone being mean to someone else, stick up for the person being picked on.
