Tonight, I read thru like 4 conference talks, some from 1987, some from 1979. I couldn't pick out one or two things to send, I kept getting distracted. One thought kept popping into my mind : will we be happy?
I'm a pretty optimistic person, I think. I try to look on the bright side of things, good and bad. I've come to know things happen for a reason, and have a strong testimony in God's plan, our divine nature, and eternal destiny. I know nothing happens by chance, and that Father is never surprised, caught off guard or unawares. He knows how it ends, He sees the final score. And we win.
I know He has put me here for a reason, but right this minute I'm here to raise my boys in righteousness, teach them His words, and show them the gospel in our home by my actions. 8 years ago, my reason was to prepare to enter His temple.
Our "reason" changes with each season of our life, but the real reason we are here is to choose for ourselves to return to Father. To have joy.
We are that we might have JOY
