I love to see the temple . . . on my birthday

I turned 33 years old on Saturday. For my birthday, I wanted to go to the temple. It had been far too long since I had gone. It was really neat because the drive to the temple was incredibly foggy, you could barely see anything. It was a thick, dark, mist, the whole way. 
 And then we got to the temple . . . a shining beacon of light in the darkness.
It was so beautiful to behold. Breathtaking, really. The pictures do not do it justice . . . 
 It had an almost green glow about it.
 I am so grateful that the temple is there -- a place of peace -- amidst a world of increasing darkness
 I love to see the temple . . . the outside, and especially the inside. I love to go there and allow Heaven to guide my thoughts. It is the House of God. I know it. I am grateful to know it. 
I could not think of anywhere I would rather go on my birthday.

  1. Looks heavenly. So glad you were able to go there w/ your honey to celebrate your special day.

    Ray and I also attended the temple last Friday night. I have felt so much peace and a greater abundance of the Spirit since then.

    We are all so blessed to have temples so near.
