There is a divine plan. It is called the plan of our Heavenly Father. We believe in God. We know that He lives and we can have faith in Him. The scriptures testify that we are the children of God, His literal spirit offspring. We lived with Him before we came to this earth. We are created in His image, and He is our Heavenly Father. Therefore, we are all brothers and sisters. Because our Heavenly Father loves us, He has prepared a plan for us as we live here in mortality... I have learned from the scriptures and the living prophets that this life is the time to prepare ourselves to meet God and one day enjoy eternal life with Him... I know that God lives and wants to help us return to live with Him. The great plan of God provided a Savior for us... O how we love our Friend, the Lord Jesus Christ, the only “name under heaven … whereby [we] may be saved.” I know that Jesus saves us from the effects of sin and death. We thank God for revealing His plan and the mission of Jesus through His chosen witnesses, the prophets and apostles. God gives these witnesses authority to act for Him. Their testimonies of the truths of the gospel are written in sacred books called scriptures. When people hear and read these teachings of the prophets, they can know they are true by the power of the Holy Ghost... I love this simple explanation of the gospel of Jesus Christ!
