I have a teen son and a brand new baby. I marvel at the fragility of her soft and mall body, the uncertainty and dependence of this tiny girl on her parents for EVERYTHING and her tender smile, as much as I stand blown away by my son's 7 second flat on the 60 yard dash.
The fact that we can not visualize the beginning and the end in one all encompassing glance does not limit our potential. What we are today is, in an order of magnitude, a fraction of what we can become in the celestial kingdom nurtured by and sitting side by side as heirs with the Savior of mankind; sharing in His glory, knowledge and divinity offered to us for an eternity by The Father.
You will be surprised what 10,000 years dwelling in the presence of God will do your body:
"And I fell at his [the angel's] feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." Rev. 19:10
