How do you Abide in HIS love?
JOLENE GARDNER, LAYTON 37TH WARD
A few months ago, I was in the celestial room of the Layton temple. I had a lot on my mind. My main concern was my children and the choices they were making. I noticed a table with a plant on it. It was right in the middle of the room and between the two eternal mirrors. The thought came to me that the plant represents our children. We only see who they are right now. Heavenly Father sees who they were in the pre existence and who they will be in the eternities. It gave me so much comfort that he sees the whole picture.
I noticed that people who were in the temple were happy. As I left, I felt happy too. My problems were still there and I still had my same concerns, but I was happy. I saw some friends as they were going in. I gave them hugs and we talked for a minute. As I was driving home, I thought of the people who Heavenly Father has put in my life to help me. Then I saw a sign that said, " We can help." I knew I wasn't alone and there were people to help me. President Eyring has said, "Sometimes you will be the angel the Lord sends to bear others up. Sometimes you will be the one surrounded by angels to bear you up." I am so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who sees the whole picture and for the angels he has put in my life.
