beautifully simple and simply beautiful.

I was just looking up a talk on lds.org when I noticed this quick video. I am grateful I stumbled upon this this evening. On a simple, regular day such as this, it was a sweet reminder to me of how grateful I am for the blessing(s) of the temple and the gospel in my life.



This was among one of my greatest temple experiences ever. What an awesome moment it was to return to one of my favorite places and be in the temple with six of my dearest friends!

"I love to see the temple
I'm going there someday.
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 covenant 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 these truths,
A family is forever!"
