Temple Blessings

The temple was grand today. I drove the slightly more peaceful drive to Oquirrh Mountain temple instead of Mt. Timp. The flowers were lovely.
The temple workers were cheerful. I had such sweet and sincere sisters serving in the initiatory. They made me giggle inside because of their sparkle. It is so quiet in the temple. It is so different than my home with 5 noisy children. I had to pry my eyes open with tooth picks to stay awake. I wanted to just curl up on a couch and sleep for a few hours. Think of all the glorious temple spirit I would absorb. But alas… I didn’t sleep. But I did enjoy the stillness.While I was waiting for my turn, I opened up the Bible to read for a bit. The page I opened up to was Psalms 138. It spoke to me.I’m so grateful for the Holy Spirit that connects with our spirit to comfort and teaches. I love doing initiatories because it reminds me of all the blessings I have been annointed with. We are so blessed. This is a reason to rejoice… the knowledge that God blesses us and watches over in very specific ways. This strengthens me to know that with God, I can do all things.
