Young Women Lesson Handout

From Today's Lesson: Holding Fast To The Lord's Standards....
I got the base for this idea from one of my new favorite websites Sugardoodle
The Red Licorice Ropes representing The Ropes of The World...
"Hold Fast To The Lord's Standards...
Don't Get Roped-In By The World's Standards"
As an object lesson, I gave each girl a long piece of string.
I had them wrap the string around their finger one time to represent a choice that followed the world. I told them that the first wrap around the finger is easier to shake off and not feel, yet as I had them wrap and wrap and wrap around their finger, each wrap representing a worldly choice, it was clear to see how tangled they can become in the ropes of the world, one choice at a time.
To reinforce the section on Modesty...
I gave them a heart magnet that said...
Modesty is never about the climate, fads, or fashions,
It is Always About The Heart....
We discussed where their hearts need to be as far as following the Standards of The Lord as opposed having a heart set on the Standards of The World.
Next week's lesson is on Wise Choices.... at this point I am thinking it will involve Gumballs... "Chewsing" Well.....
