Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ in premortal spirit world

Illustrations by Apryl Stott

Before we were born, we lived in heaven with our Heavenly Father. He taught us about His plan of happiness.

Heavenly Father said we would come to earth to get bodies. We would learn and make choices. Sometimes we would make mistakes. We would need a Savior.

The Savior would show us how to live. And when we made a wrong choice, we would be able to repent.

premortal Jesus Christ

Jesus said, “Here am I, send me.” Heavenly Father chose Him to be our Savior. Jesus promised to come to earth to save us.

Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ in celestial kingdom

I can follow Jesus. Someday I can and go back and live with Heavenly Father.
