Together Forever

Today I'm just extremely grateful that I'm married to my best friend for time and ALL eternity. :) In my Eternal Family class, we're discussing The Family: A Proclamation To The World, which you can find and print a copy of here.

This week we are discussing the third paragraph which says," In the premortal realm, spirit sons and daughters knew and worshipped God as their Eternal Father and accepted His plan by which His children could obtain a physical body and gain earthly experience to progress toward perfection and ultimately realize their divine destiny as heirs of eternal life. The divine plan of happiness enables family relationships to be perpetuated beyond the grave. Sacred ordinances and covenants available in holy temples make it possible for individuals to return to the presence of God and for families to be united eternally." 

These ordinances and covenants are necessary for everyone to enter into if they want to live eternally with God. Our Heavenly Father loves us so dang much. He truly just wants us to be happy! And as we obey Him, he pours out his blessings upon us.  

In The Book of Mormon in Mosiah 16:7-8 it says, 
 7 "And if Christ had not risen from the dead, or have broken the bands of death that the grave should have no victory, and that death should have no sting, there could have been no resurrection.
 But there is a resurrection, therefore the grave hath no victory, and the sting of death is swallowed up in Christ."

I'm so grateful for our Savior Jesus Christ. Because of Him, we will live again! He has taken away that sting of death because of his perfect love towards us.
