Grateful Day 18: Temples

It is so exciting to be driving anywhere by where we live and be able to see the new Gilbert temple.  I know that it is only a matter of time before construction and building start to block my view but there is a very calming peace that comes over me when I catch a glimpse of it or drive by it.  

I am grateful for temples and for the sacred and special work that happens within the walls of the temple.  I am grateful that I am sealed to the man that I love and our children are sealed to us as well.  I am extremely grateful to know that our family continues on in heaven and we will know those who have passed on from this life.  I love the peace and the serenity of being inside the temple and grateful that I live close enough to visit a temple often.  I do consider the Mesa and Gilbert temples to be treasures in my life.
