“[My plan] was not getting me where I wanted to go. I knew I wanted something different, but I didn’t really know what it was until I was introduced to Christ. … [He] wanted me to follow Him, and it changed my entire perspective.”
Bill
“I know that I’m a daughter of God. … I remember when [my son] was born, I would look into his eyes and say to myself, ‘I was there. … I came from heaven.’ I was confident enough to say to our Heavenly Father, ‘Send me down; I want to go.’”
Shelley
“When I turn to God in my failures, I know I can become better. I can keep on going. … All these experiences I’ve had in this life have pointed me towards Him. … I’ve been able to see who I am as a child of God.”
Hollis
“I had all kinds of questions. Who was my Savior? Did Heavenly Father know me? What was His plan for me? [The missionaries] were always willing and ready to answer my questions, and they always had resources to back them up.”

God’s Plan Gives Purpose and Meaning to Life
What is God’s plan?
God’s plan for you starts and ends with love. He is your Heavenly Father, and you are His child. You lived with Him in heaven before you were born. Because God loves you, He wants you to grow, find happiness, and one day return to live with Him. To achieve that goal, He created a perfect plan where you could receive a physical body, face challenges, make choices, and become more like Him by following the example of Jesus Christ. God knows that you can only reach your full potential by experiencing the happiness and hardships of mortality.
You are not alone
Though you walk by faith in this life, you never have to walk alone. God gave you several tools to help you navigate this world on your journey back to Him. He blessed you with His commandments, a moral compass, the holy scriptures, and prophets who speak on His behalf. He has surrounded you with people—strangers, acquaintances, friends, and family members—to uplift and support you on your path. Finally, He gave you the gift of His Son (see John 3:16) to save you from sin and to show you the way.
Jesus is your Savior
God knew that we would all make mistakes, so He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to pay the price for our sins. When you repent, commit to follow Jesus, and strive to do better, God promises to forgive you of your wrongdoings. You can be free from the burden of shame and sorrow, and the stain of your sins can be made “white as snow” (Isaiah 1:18) through the redeeming power of Jesus Christ. No matter how far you fall, you can always find your way back to God if you turn to Jesus Christ.
Family relationships are central to God’s plan
Jesus’s teachings of love and compassion can help you strengthen your family relationships and develop meaningful connections with others. While many things in this life are temporary (money, power, material possessions), family relationships can endure forever. Through God’s plan of happiness, you and your family can live in His presence throughout eternity.
While sometimes this life can seem confusing and complex, God’s plan for you is beautifully simple. If you’re feeling a little lost on the path or unsure of where to start, missionaries can help you find your way. Meet with us to learn more about who you are, where you came from, and how Jesus Christ can help you overcome challenges and return to live with God.
Deepen your understanding of your life’s purpose:
- Ask God to strengthen you as you tackle the unique challenges of life. Pray for increased faith in Jesus Christ and an understanding of what choices will bring you the most happiness.
- Read the following scriptures about the purpose of life, and ponder what they mean to you:
- Focus on applying Jesus’s teachings in your life and in your relationships with others. Think of someone you can help, serve, or show love to.
