“Our loving Father oversaw the Creation of this very earth
for the express purpose of providing an opportunity for you and for me to have
the stretching and refining experiences of mortality, the chance to use our
God-given moral agency to choose Him, to learn and grow, to make mistakes, to
repent, to love God and our neighbor, and to one day return home to Him. He
sent His precious Beloved Son to this fallen world to live the full range of
the human experience, to provide an example for the rest of His children to
follow, and to atone and redeem. Christ’s great atoning gift removes every
roadblock of physical and spiritual death that would separate us from our
eternal home. Everything about the Father’s plan for His beloved children is
designed to bring everyone home. The intent of the Father’s great plan of
happiness is your happiness, right here, right now, and in the eternities.” –
Elder Patrick Kearon
