alma 12: 20 - 27
how has knowing the purpose of life helped guide you?
--> i especially love verse 24 in this section of scripture. "this life became a probationary state; a time to prepare to meet God". this simple sentence gives me so much direction and hope. i am an expectations kind of girl. i need to know what is expected of me, and then i can accomplish it. i know that one of the main purposes of my life here on earth is to prepare to be with God again. with that end goal in mind, i know that all the things we are asked to do in the meantime are a means to that end. in verse 32, it says "therefore God gave unto them commandments after having made known unto them the plan of redemption." Heavenly Father taught them the plan, showed them the end goal, then showed them how to get there... what commandments they would have to keep to make it happen for them in their lives. this is a perfect system. i love that.
