Alma 4:14 Looking forward to that day, thus retaining a remission of their sins; being filled with great joy because of the resurrection of the dead, according to the will and power and deliverance of Jesus Christ from the bands of death.
2 Ne 2: 25 Adam fell that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy.
*There is so much pain that we each live with on a daily basis. I take great comfort in these scriptures. First, it gives me relief and hope for my own eternity, I will be perfected, no backwards heart, no pacemaker, no migraines, no depression, no pain. I will be made whole, and I will be perfect. Second, I know that thru God's plan of Happiness, that we are to have joy. Joy is part of the plan! Not just a lucky surprise! Not every day is a happy one, not every situation is happy. But I have a testimony that if we search our days and situations, we can find a bright side, we can find joy.
