"Our beloved prophet, President Thomas S. Monson, has taught: “I can’t stress too strongly that decisions determine destiny. You can’t make eternal decisions without eternal consequences.”
We were talking the other day about this very topic, how this life was given to us to make choices.
"In reality we have only two eternal choices, each with eternal consequences: choose to follow the Savior of the world and thus choose eternal life with our Heavenly Father or choose to follow the world and thus choose to separate ourselves from Heavenly Father eternally."
Trying to relate this message to the kids we likened it to Star Wars where Aniken makes choices that lead him to the dark side, while Luke choses to follow the good side.
"My dear brothers and sisters, your eternal destiny will not be the result of chance but of choice. It is never too late to begin to choose eternal life!"
The choices we make every day are so important. While every choice won't determine the outcome of our life, they each choice does take us down a path and can prove to be a great advancement or detour.
