The House of the Lord

April 23, 2013

This morning my sister, Emily, and I went through the Mt. Timpanogos Temple together for our first times.  It was like a dream!  Mom was our escort, and we were accompanied by dad and Emily's fiance(and now husband), Craig.  What a special experience! The spirit of peace and love that dwells in the House of the Lord is unlike any I've ever experienced.  As a young child I can't count the number of times that I sang the words of the popular primary song, "I love to see the temple."  The words are so simple and yet they have so much importance: "I love to see the temple, I'll go inside someday.  I'll covenant with my Father; I'll promise to obey."  The temple is one of the greatest blessings we've been given on this earth.  I'm so thankful for the opportunity I have to attend the temple regularly and worship my Heavenly Father in His house.  I love the temple!
