A Witness Of An Apostle Of The Lord On Who We Are And Our Purpose Here On Earth

Most people that are living, at some time or another, ask themselves, who are we?

Where did we come from?

What is our purpose?

Where do we go after we die?

I flew in to Salt Lake City, Utah from Honolulu, Hawaii where I was stationed in the Army, and it was 1 year after joining the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

I attended the April 1973 General Conference. This is a World Wide Conference of all church members which happens twice a year, April and October.

Members listen to the Prophet of the church and some of the Twelve Apostles and other General Authorities as they speak to all the members.

This is where you hear modern Revelation from the Lord through His servants to us, to guide us in this day.

I had the same questions about myself and life and the purpose of it.

One speaker on that occasion answered my questions, right there as I sat.

It was a member of the Council of the Twelve Apostles of the Lord, Elder Boyd K. Packer. I have never thought of life the same after that moment.

His talk was named: BEHOLD YOUR LITTLE ONES.

He was talking to the children, but it had to do with ALL OF US, since we were all children once and are still children inside.

He said that before we were born on earth, we lived in the spirit world with our Heavenly Father.

He told us that when we were born on earth, we were NOT created then, only our PHYSICAL BODIES were.

We came from our Heavenly Father INTO these bodies to live and be tested here on earth for a period of time.

ELDER BOYD K. PACKER, of the Council of the Twelve Apostles.

Many things can be learned from this talk from Elder Packer, but the most will be taught to you by the Holy Spirit, talking to your spirit inside your body.

Try to listen to the whisperings inside of your heart and mind and you will know the truth of what he is saying.
