The Blessings of The Temple....


As much as I hate the traffic and driving on I-4, I needed to feel a sense
of calm and peace from what has been a chaotic
past few weeks, and the only place to truly feel any sense of peace
is in the Temple. So this morning after getting the boys off
to work I packed myself up and headed to Orlando.
It is amazing how the Lord knows each of us intimately!
While In the celestial room I tried to pray for answers, I kept falling asleep!
For some reason I could not seem to get any of my questions out
before I would begin floating away again. That is not like me at all!!
I was very frustrated with myself and finally after almost
30 minutes I gave up and walked down stairs.
With no time for another session I went to see if they needed help
with initiatories. As I waited for a sister to come and let me
know the schedule I noticed this quote on the desk:

"I promise you that all who faithfully

attend to temple work will be blessed

beyond measure. Your families will draw

closer to the Lord, unseen angels

will watch over your loved ones when

satanic forces tempt them, the veil

will be thin, and great spiritual

experiences will distill upon this people."

--Vaughn J. Featherstone

My Heart immediately felt comforted and at peace.

It was the answer I had come for and the comfort I was seeking!

I know it is sometimes tough to get there, it is oh so worth it though!!!
