I'm Glad I'm Going On A Mission! (sing it)

I had such an amazing experience today. Some of the sister missionaries in my area asked if I would like to spend a couple of hours with them and see what it was like "out in the field" and I leaped at the opportunity. The first appointment that I went to was very touching. The person we went to teach- her faith was incredible. The thing I really liked most was that as we were teaching her she wrote down the things that she liked from the lesson and the things that she would like to improve on. Then she would share things with us that she learned at church. I learned a lot from her and I am glad that I got the chance to meet her. After that we went to another appointment and they were not home. Things like that happen- you hear that a lot, but you just need to keep working and doing your best. As we were going back out to the car one of the neighbors started talking to us and she shared with us her testimony of missionary work. 

I am so glad that I have made the decision to serve! It feels better and better everyday. I know that Heavenly Father knows the needs of all of His children and I hope that I can meet their needs with His help. Today was defiantly a blessing. It once again confirmed that this is the plan for me! I love this gospel more than anything and I am very excited to share it with others! 

I Love To See The Temple

Yesterday I was able to go the the Salt Lake temple and it was a beautiful experience. I know that many people feel nervous or scared to go but I can promise that there is no need for the fear. The temple workers help you the whole way. My bishop told me to visualize them as representing the Holy Ghost and when I thought of them through that perspective I was able to feel more at peace. It made me so happy that I would smile when they helped me through everything!

I know that the temple is a house of the Lord and I am so glad that I was able to go there with my parents and better understand that my family is forever! I am so grateful to have that knowledge and I know that it is true!

We want everyone to come to the temple and feel the peace and comfort that it brings. The temple is sacred and not secret. Nothing is a secret inside the temple. The temple is the Lord's house. Like our own homes, nothing secret goes on inside them but we don't want just anyone coming in. Things happen in our homes that are sometimes more personal and private, but nothing that is secret. It's just something that is personal to us. The temple is a beautiful place where we come to be closer with our Heavenly Father and His Son Jesus Christ. If you want to know more click here or here.

Have a happy Sunday! :)

The District

I have loved watching The District and when I finished all 6 videos I was wishing there were more! Then I heard that BYUtv actually has a mini series of it. When I found this out I could not have been more excited! To see more episodes click here!
