"And moreover, I would desire that ye should consider on the blessed and happy state of those that keep the commandments of God. For behold, they are blessed in all things, both temporal and spiritual; and if they hold out faithful to the end they are received into heaven that thereby they may dwell with God in a state of never-ending happiness. O remember, remember that these things are true; for the Lord God hath spoken it."
I know that this is true!! As we strive to keep the commandments of God and follow our Savior we are happy and we are blessed, both temporally and spiritually. That doesn't mean that we will not have any trials or difficulties, but it does mean that our Savior will be there to help and comfort us and He will give us the strength to get through whatever it is. One of my favorite sayings is:
"Sometimes our Savior calms the storm, and sometimes
He lets the storm rage and He calms His child."
And as we are faithful and obedient to the end we will be able to dwell with our Heavenly Father, our Savior, and our family "in a state of never-ending happiness". I love my Father, my Savior, AND MY FAMILY!!! I want to be with all of you for eternity. Heaven won't be heaven for me without ALL OF YOU! Love you all!
At EFY last year this was my company's theme. Our name was Blessed and Happy.
