Remember... and Rest in God

Remember...

God has known you individually, brethren, for a long, long time (see D&C 93:23). He has loved you for a long, long time. He not only knows the names of all the stars (see Psalm 147:4; Isaiah 40:26); He knows your names and all your heartaches and your joys! By the way, you have never seen an immortal star; they finally expire. But seated by you tonight are immortal individuals--imperfect but who are, nevertheless, 'trying to be like Jesus'!

~ Neal A. Maxwell,
Ensign, May 2004

  1. Beautiful. I love the reminder that even the stars, which seem to be the very image of 'forever', will eventually die. But we are eternal.
