Eternal Perspective


I feel that most of the time we are going on this life and we don't realize the bigger picture. I feel that we are so blinded by the temporary things that we forget its permanent consequences. We sometimes put ourselves in these situations when things go wrong we automatically look at the worse scenario. Our Faith is supposed to anchor ourselves to look at everything at an eternal perspective not just sit in our minds and do nothing. As we value the blessings that come along with knowing the Gospel of Jesus Christ to help us. We will benefit from the Comfort that comes along by living the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Our day to day actions and thoughts will prepare us for any scenario that may occur in our lives.

Elder Russel M Nelson quoted " If you've got Faith, you can handle difficulties knowing that with an Eternal perspective All will be well". We will live our lives with many trials and tribulations and will be tested of our Faith. And the reason isn't just because we can be blinded by the things of this world. Its also because we forget who we are and our purpose here in this Life.

As I personally have gone through times of trouble and need , I am so grateful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Strength that it gives me in any tumultuous times. All those that read this I want to tell you to be Patient. Perfection takes time. We simply need to just take couple steps back and look at things in a more Eternal Perspective. No matter what the scenario I invite all to have Faith and keep moving and always remember that the Lord will always be there to comfort us and pick us up when we are down. I testify that everyone may remember that all we may go through are learning experiences as a trial of our faith. May we simply take several steps back and open our eyes to the perspective of the Lord and remember our identities and our purpose here in this life. In the name of Jesus Christ Amen.
