Mortality is one of the greatest gifts Heavenly Father has given His children, Elder Paul B. Pieper of the Seventy said during a campus devotional address at BYU–Idaho on February 19.
“Each person is placed on the earth in unique settings and circumstances,” he said. “Despite our uniqueness, the Lord has revealed truths about the purposes of this mortal life that apply to all of us.”
Elder Pieper called these truths “realities of mortality” and shared three specific realities that are necessary for all to fulfill the purposes for which they came to earth.
