Grateful for the Blessings of the Temple...

Since being in my new calling as Primary chorister, one of my favorite songs is "I Love To See The Temple".  I learned the first verse but until this year never even heard the 2nd verse.  For those that don't know, the 2nd verse says:
I love to see the temple, I'll go inside someday
To covenant with my Father, To promise to obey
For the temple is a holy place, Where we are sealed together
As a child of God of I've learned this truth
A Family is Forever

What a truly beautiful message.  I am so grateful for the blessings of the temple.  I am grateful to be sealed to the love of my life and our beautiful children.  I am grateful to know that our family continues into the eternities.  I am grateful to attend the temple often and imagine what it will be like in the Celestial Kingdom.  It helps to motivate and recommit to be better. I am looking forward to going through with each of our sons...well sort of looking forward.  

I am ecstatic that a new temple is being built so close.  I love to see it going up and every time I see (on my way to Costco) the words to the Primary song always pop into my head.  I truly feel blessed to live in this time when so many temples are going up and access is readily available.  I am grateful for the blessings of the temple and I consider them one of my greatest treasures.
