Winter Quarters Temple

This morning Josh and I were able to go to the temple! The temple sessions are all at times that Josh is at work or in a meeting, but we know how important it is to always make time for the temple! So Josh was able to take a little time out of his day to make the trip with me. It was only my second time going through the temple since we got married and I have absolutely loved it!! The temple is a place of peace, reverence and of refuge from the outside world. When we are there, little else matters. Our thoughts are focused on our Heavenly Father and his son Jesus Christ. How amazing it is to be in the house of the Lord, a place where we are closest to God and feel of His love and comfort. I believe in the power and blessings that come from going worthily to the temple and in the ordinances that take place there.

A couple quotes on the temple:

    “At the temple the dust of distraction seems to settle out, the fog and the haze seem to lift, and we can ‘see’ things that we were not able to see before and find a way through our troubles that we had not previously known.”
—President Boyd K. Packer


    “I think there is no place in the world where I feel closer to the Lord than in one of His holy temples.”—President Thomas S. Monson

We also got to go to Chipotle for lunch!! Oh man it was a great morning with my amazing husband! I love temple dates with the hubby. Especially when they involve food afterward :)

 We are dorks. But life is better that way.
