How to Become Eternally Rich

Have you heard the phrase “You can’t take it with you”?

It’s true. When our bodies rise from the grave, we won’t have a complete set of luggage packed to the brim to take with us on our journey. Any earthly riches will be left behind, and our assets will have no meaning. The only things we can take with us are the loving relationships we created in mortality, the actions for good that we did on the earth and the knowledge and learning that we accomplished.

My understanding of becoming eternally rich would be to be surrounded by the most fulfilling things throughout the eternities. I would include peace in that description. We can have peace knowing that we fulfilled our responsibilities here on earth; that we nurtured relationships, comforted the comfortless, succored the weak and the afflicted and went about doing good.

We could add to that wealth by gaining as much knowledge and wisdom as we can possibly obtain. Heavenly Father’s creations and designs all have a scientific foundation and I believe it pleases Him to know that we are studying His works. We all have the opportunity to learn either on our own or at an institution for learning.

School can be a grind

Recently, President Henry B. Eyring spoke during a devotional at the LDS Business College. He said, “I know school can be a grind, I know it seems difficult. I know you get discouraged at times. I know you wonder why you are attending school at all. But keep on. Keep on hammering away. Keep on learning. You will never regret learning—neither in this life, nor in the world to come. Indeed, you will treasure forever what you learn and what you learn about how to keep on learning.” 1

We are ever enriched by our ability to learn. Have you ever noticed an excitement as you step into an unknown territory of information and grow in your capacity to understand? It brings a sense of fulfillment that is sweet to the soul.

Another form of becoming eternally rich is through righteous principles. I am reminded of the account of the rich young ruler who asked the Savior what he should do to gain eternal life. The Lord responded by recounting the commandments. 

What lack I yet?

Matthew 19: 20-21 records, “the young man saith unto him, all these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet? Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.”

We can add to our treasure daily by following the Savior’s example with our righteous works and acts of goodness. D&C 16: 6 says “And now, behold, I say unto you, that the thing which will be of the most worth unto you will be to declare repentance unto this people, that you may bring souls unto me, that you may rest with them in the kingdom of my Father.”

There is no shortage of opportunities to add to our eternal wealth as we serve, lift, inspire, and remain faithful and obedient to the commandments of our Lord. How will you add to your eternal treasure today?

  • “In the crypto world, this is great news I want to share. Last year, I fell victim to a scam disguised as a safe investment option. I have invested in crypto trading platforms for about 10yrs thinking I was ensuring myself a retirement income, only to find that all my assets were either frozen, I believed my assets were secure — until I discovered that my BTC funds had been frozen and withdrawals were impossible. It was a devastating moment when I realized I had been scammed, and I thought my Bitcoin was gone forever, Everything changed when a close friend recommended the Capital Crypto Recover Service. Their professionalism, expertise, and dedication enabled me to recover my lost Bitcoin funds back — more than €560.000 DEM to my BTC wallet. What once felt impossible became a reality thanks to their support. If you have lost Bitcoin through scams, hacking, failed withdrawals, or similar challenges, don’t lose hope.

  • If you are having withdrawals issues or your crypto investment account has been locked, compromised, or hacked I highly recommend reaching out to Mrs. Lisette Zamora recovery firm. Last month, I found myself in a distressing situation after falling victim to a crypto scam that left me feeling hopeless. This decision turned out to be life-changing, as they successfully recovered my funds within just a few days. I am incredibly grateful for their swift and effective assistance.

    • Megan Schroeder!
  • I hope this review gets to as many as possible because I am sure it will save many. On March 15, I received a message on Telegram inviting me to join a Cryptocurrency investment group. At first, I thought it was a harmless invitation. I joined and began to see how a specific crypto and forex trader was helping many people and even gifting out Bitcoin to his loyal followers. I was thrilled; many people in the group were reporting their daily successes and how they were earning a substantial amount. I was jealous; I saw people making a lot of money, but not me. I became furious and decided to contact the group’s admin, not realizing I had fallen for their trap. That Telegram channel was a hoax, controlled by an organized team of scammers. Within 3 months of being on that platform, I had given out a whopping 11 Bitcoin in total. I was lost when I was logged out of the investment website and blocked from accessing their Telegram channel. I tried all the means I could think of at that moment, all to no avail. It went from days to weeks, and I still couldn’t get back my lost Bitcoin. I was on Medium when I came across a review about digital assets recovery companies. There were quite a few of them, but DuneNectarOnlineExpert caught my attention. I copied their email ( Support @ Dunenectaronlineexpert . Com ), filed a report, and my task was attended to with utmost urgency. After back and forth with this team of cybersecurity experts, DuneNectarOnlineExpert successfully traced the Bitcoin to the scammers’ wallet, and it was successfully reclaimed. The team of DuneNectarOnlineExpert was incredibly helpful in recovering my lost Bitcoin.
