Life is beautiful when you know how to live with purpose!

My Life Is a Gift; My Life Has a Plan!

My life is a gift; my life has 

a plan

My life has a purpose; in heav’n it began.

My choice was to come to this lovely home on earth

And seek for God’s light to direct me from birth.

These words teach that you lived with Heavenly Father before you came to earth. You are His child. Heavenly Father asked His Son, Jesus Christ, to create the earth. The earth was prepared so you could come and receive a body. You were also given agency, and you chose to come to earth and learn to follow Heavenly Father’s plan.

You can learn about Heavenly Father’s plan in the scriptures. Jacob, aBook of Mormon prophet, taught that Jesus Christ was chosen to be our Savior. He would come to earth to live, take upon Himself the sins of the world, and provide a way for all of Heavenly Father’s children to return to Him. Because of Jesus, you can repent and be forgiven of your sins. Jacob said, “O how great the plan of our God!” (2 Nephi 9:13).

Heavenly Father loves you. He has given you His word—--------------the scriptures—   

  

    so you can learn about His plan. If you follow His plan, you will be happy on earth and return to live with Him someday.
