“Seeing God’s Family Through the Overview Lens” by Tamara W. Runia

QUOTE ABOUT JESUS CHRIST:

“It is my witness that the Savior has the ability, because of His Atonement, to turn any nightmare you are going through into a blessing. He has given us a promise ‘with an immutable covenant’ that as we strive to love and follow Him, ‘all things wherewith [we] have been afflicted shall work together for [our] good.’ All things.”
-Tamara W. Runia

SCRIPTURE:

“And there were many whose faith was so exceedingly strong, even before Christ came, who could not be kept from within the veil, but truly saw with their eyes the things which they had beheld with an eye of faith, and they were glad.”

-Ether 12:19

INSPIRING QUOTE:

“I bear my testimony that this—all of this—is going to turn out so much better than we could ever imagine! With an eye of faith on Jesus Christ, may we see that everything will be all right in the end and feel that it will be all right now.”
–Tamara W. Runia

INVITATION TO ACT:

“Let’s use that overview lens and see the people we love and live with as shared companions on this beautiful planet. You and I? We can do this! We can hold on and hope on! We can stay at the tree and partake of the fruit with a smile on our face, letting the Light of Christ in our eyes become something others can count on in their darkest hours. As they see light manifest in our countenances, they will be drawn to it. We can then help refocus their attention to the original source of love and light, ‘the bright and morning star,’ Jesus Christ.”

-Tamara W. Runia

A PROMISED BLESSING:

“It’s the Savior’s work to bring our loved ones back. It’s His work and His timing. It is our work to provide the hope and a heart they can come home to…Love is the thing that changes hearts. It is the purest motive of all, and others can feel it.”
-Tamara W. Runia

REFLECTION QUESTION:

  • How can I have a more hopeful eternal perspective for those I love?
