Blow The Trumpet When Jesus Comes Again

I had an opportunity to talk to one of my granddaughter's, Madison. She just turned 8 this last year and was baptized with another cousin, who also turned 8 this last year. So she is very sensitive to the Holy Ghost's promptings.

She was telling me that she thought since I was someone who fights against "Satan" that she knew I would he a helper to greet Jesus when he comes by blowing the trumpets when he comes again. I asked her, "Why?"


She said, "Remember Grandma? You told the dentist (orthodontist) that he shouldn't give kids (fake) tattoos as prizes when they visit his office."

I had taken her to her appointment about 2 months ago when her mom had to work, so I drove her to the orthodontist. They were very cordial to me and even invited me in to see her get her adjustment for her braces. On our way out she wanted to pick a prize, so she chose some green colored tattoos. I started to walk out with her, and I had a prompting to go back and tell them what I thought about giving kids a message that those were okay. I told them as parents and grandparents we teach our children that our bodies are our temples and we don't use those kinds of things on them, like graffiti. They listened and said they would pass it on.

I had no idea she took all that in at the time. We didn't talk about it, but now know she heard every word. I told Tracie about it today, and she laughed and said she didn't know anything about me saying that to their dentist, and told me that now Madie will not wear those anymore because her body is her temple! That pleased me, more than anything she could have said.

I stood up for what I believed without concern that someone might think less of me. I just knew it was right to tell her orthodontist about the (fake) tattoos.
