The Priesthood has the Power to move mountains. This was a fun one to create for Craig Cardon, Seans BFF from HS. Craigs Father, President Cardon had recited a story of Craig as a young boy wanting his Dad to move the San Tan Mountains. It was an endearing story. Craig takes life in strides so I thought this would a perfect way to recognize his child like faith.
I am a woman so of course I made two. I hung 'My' favorite one on the wall for a few weeks while I waited for Craig to pick up his surprise gift. The day Craig came... I switched pieces. I love my switch. As fortune would have it. President Cardon was in town for a day and half and was able to see the piece I made for Craig and his wife Amii.
The piece has become a lesson tool for our young sons. Our oldest son Parker asked if Dad could move mountains. I looked at him in a surprised manner.... 'of course HE can!! Sean!!!!! COme Here! ( moments pass, Sean arrives) Sean says " Yeah, Hun, whats up?" I said, "Hey Hun, Parker wants to know if you cna move mountains because you have the preisthood power... ( Sean is looking for a rescue from the conversation) I told him 'Definately!!!!' Sean move that mountain. So Sean moves the big bonkin picture. Parker grins. Thats not what I meant.
Parker , I know what you meant.
IF Heavenly Father wanted Dad to move the San Tan mountains he could, just as easily as he moved the picture."
Then Sean adds " but If I dont put it back right Mom will get mad"
Parker grins and walks off. Satisfied with the nuttyness of his parents.
Learning opportunities are everywhere...
