We are all used to using the stock
phrase “the best days of my life” to accurately describe a
specific time period of our mortal journey here action-packed with
events or circumstances that bring great joy and satisfaction.
Perhaps it could be when we are young and in love, or old and in
love. Or maybe it could reference the days we are raising our babies
and grandbabies. They all count.
But the Mormon Third Eye sees things
differently. While our Heavenly Father is the ultimate author of all
these joys, I'm not sure he wants us to focus too much on them at the
expense of more pressing eternal needs. We are taught that earth
life could be the most important sliver in the long march of
eternity. In light of this fundamental truth, perhaps we should be
working more on compiling “the best life of our days;”
receiving the ordinances and freely accepting and keeping the
covenants that render our life here the pathway to eternity.
Think about it. Are you having the
“Best Life of Your Days?”
