“We can choose to make and keep the covenants with God that
qualify us for eternal life. As we endure in that faithfulness, the Holy Ghost
will confirm our hope and confidence that we are on the path to eternal life,
to live in families forever in the celestial kingdom. For some that eternal joy
may seem a faint or even a fading hope. Parents, children, brothers, and
sisters may have made choices that seem to disqualify them from eternal life.
You may even wonder whether you have yet been qualified through the Atonement
of Jesus Christ. A prophet of God once offered me counsel that gives me peace.
I was worried that the choices of others might make it impossible for our
family to be together forever. He said, ‘You are worrying about the wrong
problem. You just live worthy of the celestial kingdom, and the family
arrangements will be more wonderful than you can imagine.’” – President Henry
