Who is the most important prophet to ever live?

I got many answers to this question this morning. It made for some fun discussion as we reviewed great contributions made by great men of God. But I was so proud when it didn't take too long for Parker to say, "President Monson, because he is the living prophet".
I took a yellow marker and wrote on the board "yellow", because it is President Monson's favorite color. Then I took a brown marker and wrote, "chocolate" on the board because he loves chocolate, but the basket of chocolate candy bars caught immediate attention.
On each bar there was a slip of paper with a question for the student and then how it would be answered by the prophet. Example: "How many children do you want to have? President Monson has three, two boys and one girl." This game was Suzanne's idea and I especially liked how the kids could relate to the prophet through their own answers as well as his. Each student had good comments and observations.
The last was a Snickers bar and the question was, "Can you wiggle your ears like President Monson?" and Clara could! She did it for us... twice! Then Kaitlyn read the part of a talk given in General Priesthood meeting where this story was told.
We read quotes by President Monson and briefly discussed them, noticing that most of the Prophet's statements were about keeping the faith. He said, "I urge you to hold fast to your standards. I plead with you not to waver", and "Courage, not compromise, brings the smile of God's approval."
We are preparing to get to know a little about Isaiah next. And perhaps, because we have been able to view a more personal side of our current prophet, we may better be able to relate to a prophet of old. Nephi said to liken the scriptures to ourselves and he also chose to repeat the words of Isaiah in his own writings. It would seem, therefore, that we too would do well to understand the counsel of these ancient men of God.
