All Heavenly Father wants is for us to be happy and return
to Him. He has given us everything we need to be able to live with Him again.
He has given us the gospel to come to know Christ, He has given us scripture to
learn about His great plan, and He has given us commandments so He can bless our
lives. One of my favorite scriptures is found in Mosiah 2:24: “And secondly, he
doth require that ye should do as he hath commanded you; for which if ye do he
doth immediately bless you…” The reason Heavenly Father has given us commandments
is so He can bless us. So He can help us find happiness. So we can stay on the
path that leads us back home to Him. Heavenly Father has given us everything.
And what’s the one thing He has asked us to do? “If ye love me, keep my
commandments.” I know healing, hope, love and happiness comes from following
the example of our Savior, Jesus Christ, by keeping the commandments. And
keeping the commandments is how we show we truly love Him.
