I love to see the Temple!!!

We had the best sacrament meeting on Sunday! The spirit was so strong in the meeting.  Sister Hoopes talked to us about "be still and listen" She told us how todays world is a total rush.  I agree with her completely! She said that even when people go to the temple they are in a hurry with errands to run before and after.  It was so good to be reminded that we need to take the time to do the things that are right.  Take time to say meaningful prayers, take time to read and study our scriptures and words of the prophet, and take the time to go to the house of the Lord and take the time to prepare to go there so we are ready to do the work that needs to be done.  Some little kids sang I love to see the Temple.  It is so amazing that a simple primary song can bring the spirit so strong.  I had tears in my eyes just listening to the words.  I am so grateful that I was able to be married in the Temple and be able to receive the blessings from attending as much as we can. We are so blessed to live so close to a beautiful temple and I do admit that I think we take that for granted sometimes and do need to be better about going more often. I'm glad that we had the opportunity to have that great reminder on Sunday and am going to try to take advantage of being so close to the Temple!
