Those who
have Gone Before Rejoice with us President Joseph F. Smith
|

 I
feel sure that the Prophet Joseph Smith and his associates, who, under
the guidance and inspiration of the Almighty, and by his power, began
this latter-day work, would rejoice and do rejoice, if they are permitted
to look down upon the scene that I behold in this tabernacle. And I
believe they do have that privilege of looking down upon us, just as
the all-seeing eye of God beholds every part of his handiwork. For I
believe that those who have been chosen in this dispensation and in
former dispensations, to lay the foundation of God's work in the midst
of the children of men, for their salvation and exaltation, will not
be deprived in the spirit world from looking down upon the results of
their own labors, efforts and mission assigned them by the wisdom and
purpose of God to help to redeem and to reclaim the children of the
Father from their sins.(Messages of the First Presidency 5:5-6) |
