Have I mentioned lately how much I love working in the temple. Today one of the other ordinance workers was able to seal her parents together and then seal herself to her parents. Then later in the day I was able to participate in the sealing ordinance as a daughter for other families. I love being able to be part of the process that creates eternal families. I come home from the temple with joy in my heart and more centered in the gospel. Every week I go I experience the love our Father has for us. I know that the doctrine we have in the gospel is foreign and restrictive to the world.  I find, for me it is a safe and secure place where I know what is expected and how to progress. I know that the promises made to me will be upheld and will never change.

When I see other church change their doctrine to suit the world I wonder how anyone can have trust in that organization. I know that the covenants I have made are eternal and that my God  is unchanging and His laws will always be His laws and it is my choice to be obedient or not. And I will be held accountable for those choices.

I have peace in my heart that I know my sons are waiting for me to join them and that because of our covenants they are my sons forever and ever.

I am so thankful for my ancestors that found the gospel and followed the prophet. That my parents where married in the temple and I, and my siblings, were born in the covenant. That I was able to do the temple work for my sister and my husband for our son. To always have that scared connection. I am so blessed and grateful.
