Cycle to Eternal Life


As I was reading my scriptures this morning, I came to Mormon 9 and after reading a few verses I ended up with this drawing. How cool is that?! In Mormon 9:12-13 it explains it really well how we are all here with a purpose. That through this plan, we can be with our Heavenly Father again. It says,
"Behold, he created Adam, and by Adam came the fall of man. And because of the fall of man came Jesus Christ; even the Father and the Son; and because of Jesus Christ came the redemption of man.
And because of the redemption of man, which came by Jesus Christ, they are brought back into the presence of the Lord; yea, this is wherein all men are redeemed, because the death of Christ bringeth to pass the resurrection, which bringeth to pass a redemption from an endless sleep, from which sleep all men shall be awakened by the power of God when the trump shall sound; small and great, and all shall stand before his bar, being redeemed and loosed from this eternal band of death, which death is a temporal death."
We can all be with our Heavenly Father again after this life. And that God will never cease, for "He is the same yesterday, today, and forever..." (Mormon 9:9) I know that Heavenly Father loves all of His children and yearns for us to come unto Him. I know as we "...doubt not, but be believing, and begin in times of old, and come unto the Lord with all [our] hearts, and work out [our] own salvation with fear trembling before him," (Mormon 9:27) we can be brought back to Him. He wants us to partake of this great plan that He has prepared for us, even His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ. That through Him, and this great plan of happiness we will be full of joy!
