“This loving God who introduced his crucified and
resurrected Son was not a God lacking in body, parts, or passions—the God of a
man-made philosophy. Rather, God our Father has ears with which to hear our
prayers. He has eyes with which to see our actions. He has a mouth with which
to speak to us. He has a heart with which to feel compassion and love. He is
real. He is living. We are his children, made in his image. We look like him,
and he looks like us. This is the God who so loved the world that he gave his
Only Begotten Son that we might have everlasting life. To all who have loved
and lost a dear one, he provides the courage to say, ‘The Lord gave, and the
Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.’” – President Thomas S.
Monson
