gilbert templeI have a great love of the temple. Every time I go, I feel closer to my Heavenly Father and Savior, Jesus Christ. I feel the love that they have for me there and for all of the children of the world. I feel the love that my ancestors have for me and I feel more love for them as I do their temple work. The temple is a place that we can go to learn more about the ways of God and to receive personal revelation that can help us overcome the problems that we are facing. Whenever I go, I am able to forget the world for a bit and just focus on God. That break that I get from the hurried pace of my life, gives me a much-needed energy boost in my mood and attitude for the rest of the week. I am able to gain a greater perspective on my life and where I should be placing my priorities. I am so thankful for the opportunity I have to live so close to this place of God and attend regularly. I am so thankful for the blessing I receive because of the covenants that I have made in the temple, such as being sealed together as a family forever, and other sacred covenants that keep my life full of joy and happiness.
