So many people ask the question, “Why am I here on the Earth?” It’s a
question I love to ponder! I believe we lived with our loving Father in Heaven
before we came to this Earth. When we lived there, we took part in a great
meeting. At that meeting our Heavenly Father presented a plan - a plan of eternal
happiness. His plan was to have us, as spirits come to Earth, receive a body
and also become part of a family. In a mortal existence, we would be able to
experience a mortal life, to learn and grow and progress toward an eternal
life. It would be a time that we could prove ourselves, make the choice to
learn of Jesus Christ and follow Him and prepare ourselves to be worthy of that
eternal life. And the best part, if we prove ourselves in the mortal existence,
we would live forever in the presence of God and also live with our families
throughout eternity. We were so excited about this plan! Our Father in Heaven
gave us the choice of accepting this plan or not. I believe that everyone
accepted this plan because we all received our mortal bodies.
Our wise and loving Father has given us the privilege of being tested
and strengthened through our trials. And He gives us trials that are specific
to us and what we need to learn and grow. After we die, we will see our
families and our Savior, Jesus Christ. We will then be judged and receive the
Kingdom of Glory that we have earned.
Thank you for sharing the video. That really touched my heart to know that I am not the only one lost at times in my life and that the gospel of Jesus Christ can be the way to finding true happiness.
