Love This Place

A few weeks ago I met a man while serving in the Temple.  I actually had a powerful experience while serving with him while doing initiatory work.  Tonight I was once again doing initiatories and this brother was there serving.  Once again the spirit was strong and we both felt it.  He then thanked me for faithfully attending and serving in the Temple.  It was just one of those moments where you feel a certain bond with someone.  It was good. 

I am grateful for those who serve as Temple Workers.  I am humbled as I consider the work that they are doing, the service.  They are on the Lords errand and doing his work.  They represent him.  I am grateful for that and pray for their well being.  I don't know what kind of commitment they would be looking for relative to serving as a temple worker.  At the present time it would be difficult to be there for extended periods of time.  By present time I mean being a single dad of three.  When the kids come back from Alaska, when they are home, it isn't as easy to make it to the Temple weekly or even monthly.  I need to make some plans so that I can continue to be there regularly when they come home. 

I love the Temple.  I learn much there and enjoy serving therein.  I am grateful for the blessings of  Temples in our lives.
