Tonight I got to go to Stake Temple Night. Shawn and the youth of our ward stayed at the church to watch kids so people could go, so I had to go alone. I was really torn whether I wanted to go at all because I am so tired and uncomfortable these days... But I decided that I wouldn't be able to go for a while pretty soon and I should go. It was just what I needed. I was able to feel the spirit, receive messages that I needed in the chapel meeting, and then go and do initiatories and remember all the blessings that were given to me when I went for the first time. (sitting long enough to do a session is really painful now, so I did initiatories instead) I always have such a good time doing initiatories, and I love remembering how blessed I am by my loving Heavenly Father. I really wish that I could go to the temple every week so that I could feel the spirit, be more calm and loving, and relay that to my family.
Okay, so when I said ALONE I meant without Shawn! Anyway just to set the record straight... I went with CHOP LIVER aka: Kelly Thanks Kelly for coming with me so I didn't go ALL ALONE :)

Give your best anyway. *In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
