Yesterday we had the opportunity to go to the temple dedication for the Draper temple. The spirit was so strong there and the talks were just so uplifting. My biggest impression I took home with me is that I need to do my family history more and learn the names and lives of the people before me. What a wonderful gift and blessing it is to be sealed to our families and to be able to do the work for our love ones that may not have had the change here on earth. The temple has so many wonderful blessing and promises. I really need to make a bigger effort to get there more often. It is truly extraordinary to have all these temples surrounding us. Especially to walk out my front door and see that beautiful temple high on the mountain top! Singing that song at the dedication just gave me goose bumps. How accurate that it to have that wonderful building high for all the world to see. I am grateful for the gospel in my life and to have eternal families. The gospel is so full of love, hope, peace, and especially truth. I’m so thankful for the many people that sacrificed and dedicated their lives to have this gospel restored and giving to us in these latter days. I’m grateful for the great leaders in the church, especially our prophet Thomas S Monson! It’s been so fun to get to know him a lot more and to see what a neat guy he really is. We are blessed to have the truth!!
