Primary Scripture

Maliya was asked to share a scripture in Sharing Time. There was no particular topic assigned, it was just "child's choice." I asked Maliya if there was any scripture that she liked that she might want to share. She looked at me in bewilderment, as if she were thinking "how on earth would I know a good scripture to share?" But all she said was, "Nooooo...??"
Then she thought of something. "Maybe the one about the guy in the graveyard!" Needless to say, I was a little shocked: "The guy in the graveyard?" I responded.
"Yeah," Maliya said, "You know, when that guy lived in the graveyard and was screaming and then Jesus sent the evil spirits to be in the pigs!" (Mark 5:1-15)
...Yeah...that sounds uplifting for Primary kids...???
