GC Debrief–Nanosecond Mortality
November 07th, 2023 by G.
Quoted by Elder Oaks:
Mortal lifetime is barely a nanosecond compared with eternity. But what a crucial nanosecond it is!
-thus President Nelson
Infinities and eternities are mindwrenching when you really come to wrestle with them. In comparison with infinite time, your mortal life and the stillborn child’s life and Methuselah’s life are all 0. A point on an endless line. Infinitely small.
That is why mortality is so precious. The memories and associations and experiences you have here will be fresh in your mind, “before your face,” forever. You will never, ever, ever again know what it is like to be a mortal under these skies.

I’ve always thought this life will become a distant memory – For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.

I assume that precious moments cannot be gone like tears in the rain.
But in your case, instead of the glittering of c-beams– warm summer evenings, and all the other sweetness of life posts you have shared.
Yes, I can’t imagine a loving and mighty God would not make provision for us to keep those things.
