I had a sweet little sister from down in Findlay ask me today, "Jason..why are we here at this time in life?, Why couldn't we have been born when things were simpler?Don't you wish we could have been sent to another one of the world that God created?" My response was Sister...we have been set apart for this time to do a great work amongst our Father in Heavens people. I said that we were set apart before the foundation of the worlds and that we had been hand picked to be the righteous people to share the Gospel and the message that it has been restored so that others may find their way back home. She said" You know I never looked at it that way before."
I think it is safe to say that those of us here on this planet today have been chosen, hand picked if you will, to carry out very special deeds. The Prophet Joseph through the Prophet today surely are and were just enough to not to have had to come here, to Earth. If those that dwell on other planets are considered so righteous that they did not have to come to Earth to be tempted by Satan and his dominion, then surly The Prophets of old and new would have been listed among those. My theory is that God hand picked each of them to do his will and alot of us as well. We have been set apart for a mighty work and we must full fill that oath and obligation, even if we can't remember making it, deep down we know it is true.
Next time we ask our selves that ever dangerous question....WHY ......remember that we chose to follow and He always leads the way. The Master taught us all that he had a plan for each of us, I believe That is why we are here.

I agree completely that we are not here by happenstance; we are here for a purpose! Truly our Heavenly Father has asked much of us, but only because he knows we are capable of meeting any challenge that comes our way.
With our Father in Heaven having an eternal perspective; us being here, right here, right now is absolutely what He wants. It's time for us to live up to our duties!
