Have you ever been held back from doing something because you felt like you had too many "spots"? A lot of people feel like they shouldn't come to church or shouldn't pray because they don't feel worthy. That's kind of like this van, this van would probably love to be out on the streets, cruising around with the other vehicles, but because of all those spots, it may feel out of place.
A lot of times Satan makes us doubt and fear. He says to us, "You don't know that the church is true." Or, "You're too far gone, you should probably just not even try." Satan's lies go on and on!
Something that I have learned is that even when we aren't doing anything terribly wrong, our testimony can get more unstable if we aren't keeping the commandments 100%.
Good news! Whatever the problem is, there is a way back, and that way is through the Savior. Just like that van can be re-painted and bust through that fence, we can bust through the fence of sin and be washed clean. It won't happen by just sitting there though, you've got to do all those good things you learned in Sunday School! It can happen, but it is up to us to make the choice!
