It is good to remember that you are always a child of God. This knowledge will carry you through the most difficult times in your life and will inspire you to accomplish remarkable things. However, it is also important to remember that being a daughter [or son] of eternal parents is not a distinction you earned or you will ever lose. You will always and forever remain a daughter [or son] of God. Your Heavenly Father has high aspirations for you, but your divine origin alone does not guarantee you a divine inheritance. God sent you here to prepare for a future greater than anything you can imagine. – Dieter F. Uchtdorf, “Living the Gospel Joyful,” Ensign (CR) November 2014
