Is your plan to be happy?

" If you understand the great plan of happiness and follow it, what goes on in the world will not determine your happiness."

-President Boyd K Packer 

 So many search for something that will make them happy by constantly changing or upgrading those things around them. It isnt until we realize that the only changing or upgrading that needs to be done is our faith and personal investment in the plan of happiness.

I learned the importance of the Plan of Happiness that I would like to share with you.

"Heavenly Father desires a fulness of joy for all of His children. He provided a plan whereby His children may become like Him and receive a fulness of joy. This plan is often referred to as the plan of salvation, the plan of redemption, or the plan of happiness. Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice are essential in this plan.

There are three stages of Heavenly Father’s plan: premortal, mortal, and postmortal.
Three vital elements that make the plan possible are the Creation, the Fall, and the Atonement. In our premortal existence as spirit children of Heavenly Father, we could not become fully like Him without the experience of living in mortality with a physical body."
