Meetings With Angels, Lorenzo Snow Ch 5 and 6


This was written by Mike on February 6, 2012. It was on the wrong blog, and now it is on the right one. :)

I love the words of President Snow on our divine potential. I have long loved the principle of eternal perspective. If we constantly have an eternal perspective then the decisions of day to day life get a lot easier. The focus is much more easily placed on the things that matter most. 

Yesterday in church, Noah would  look up at the lamps hanging down in the chapel, and I thought in my minds eye that maybe he didn't just see bright lamps, but perhaps, in his very young, but still precious mind's eye, he saw angels sitting in on the sacrament meeting. I had the childlike thought, "Why are chapels made with such a high ceiling and so much empty space above the heads of the congregation?" and in reply I had the equally childlike thought, "Well, they need space for the angels to sit if they come to sacrament meeting." So for the rest of the meeting I pictured several rows of angels sitting in angelic pews enjoying the sacrament meeting.
