Thomas S. Monson Experience

Thomas S. Monson learned a very important lesson when he was 8 years old because he learned how being disobedient has big consequences. At the time Thomas was young he didn't know as much as he knows now. He was being disobedient to his parents when they told him to not play with matches and he did it anyway not knowing something bad would have happened. He wanted to go out and have a camping sleepover. Him and his friend Danny went and thought they could pull out the grass with just their hands. But when they actually tried it it was impossible. That's when Thomas and Danny thought about burning the grass so they can have a camping sleepover. At that moment Thomas was being disobedient and got the matches thinking the fire was going to stop anytime they wanted. When they saw the fire was getting bigger and they didn't know what was gonna happen. So they decided to call for help and they put the fire down but that they learned a very important lesson that '' Obedience is the great test of life''.
