“What Happens When I Die?”
All of us ask this question at one point in our lives, but what is the answer?
A testimony of our living prophet, President Thomas S. Monson, about what happens after we die.
Picture your hand inside a glove. The glove moves only when your hand does. Take your hand out and the glove sits lifeless on the table. This is an easy way to visualize what happens when you die. Imagine your body is the glove being operated by who you really are—your spirit. When you die your body gets left behind, lifeless like a glove, but your spirit lives forever.
Countless scriptures and personal accounts by prophets throughout time have told us this is true.
When you’re the one left behind—the one losing a friend or loved one—the pain of that loss is very real. But there’s a lot of comfort in knowing you’ll see him or her again. And because of Christ’s death, at some point our spirit and body will be reunited (resurrected) and made perfect never to be separated again.
In a couple of days I am going to post some powerful testimonies of people I know who have lost a loved one, and how the Gospel of Jesus Christ and their knowledge of God's plan of happiness has helped them. Make sure to check back in a few days!!

Our physical death isn’t the end, but rather is a step forward in Heavenly Father’s plan and a time of indescribable joy for the person making the transition.
