Today I ventured out in the world. It felt soooo good! Mariah took me to the temple and we had a wonderful time. My heart was so full of gratitude that several times tears overflowed, and at the end of the session they flooded. I have been so blessed that I don’t even know how to express it. Nothing seems adequate. But I take that back—nothing is adequate! The Savior always blesses me more than I deserve.It’s like King Benjamin said, “[the Lord] doth require that ye should do as he hath commanded you; for which if ye do, he doth immediately bless you; and therefore he hath paid you. And ye are still indebted unto him, and are, and will be, forever and ever” (Mosaih 2:24). The Savior will always be steps ahead of me. And I will always be indebted to Him. The best way for me to show my gratitude is to be obedient—to do what He has asked me to do.
I'm glad you got to go to the temple with your daughter. And that you had such a great experience there. I, too, feel that the Savior blesses me far more than I deserve. I'm so thankful for His influence in my life. :)
ReplyDeleteWendi, what would we do without it? It is amazing to me!
ReplyDeleteMom, whenever I see/read that scripture I think of you.
