I love to see the Temple!

I love to see the Temple!

I love to see the temple.
I’m going there someday
 March 24, 2012
To feel the Holy Spirit,
To listen and to pray.

For the temple is a house of God,
A place of love and beauty.
I’ll prepare myself while I am young;
This is my sacred duty.
I love to see the temple.
I’ll go inside someday.
I’ll cov’nant with my Father;
I’ll promise to obey.



For the temple is a holy place
Where we are sealed together.
As a child of God, I’ve learned this truth:
A fam’ly is forever.




Yesterday I had the opportunity to be there as my cousin Ashlie went through the temple and received her own Endowments. I was her only family member that could be there. It was so neat to experience everything again with her as I couldn't remember everything I learned the day that I received my own. To be able to hear the counsel from the temple matron again and the promises that she gave made me realize that it really is one of the greatest gifts that I have received in my life thus far.

Our Bishop and Sister Mansell came down from Salt Lake as well. I am truly grateful for the opportunity that I have had to receive my own endowments and the blessings from being able to attend the temple often. I am so grateful that I am able to do the work for my family that has gone on before me that they too may receive the same blessings. I love to see the Temple! I have gone inside!
