Women theoretically don’t get the priesthood because our all consuming role here on earth is to just be mothers. We can’t be distracted in any way from nurturing and caring for our children, not even by being able to give them a blessing when they’re sick because that would somehow be too big of a distraction from our real purpose – nurturing them.
But the instant we leave this earth life and become exalted mothers in heaven, all nurturing will stop immediately. We will turn that role over to our husbands. He will listen to our children’s prayers, send them comfort, and provide guidance. It’s a good thing we didn’t waste time practicing priesthood power on earth, because we needed all the practice nurturing we could get in order to… let our husbands take over that job too for the rest of eternity. Women are preparing for an eternity of doing absolutely nothing.
