Well I have been home from Utah for a few days...all I have now are the memories and some pictures. Chelsea called the other day and said she was going to the temple with a friend and I must say I did feel somewhat envious and wished I could be going too.
Temple Square is an amazing place...with a wonderful spirit. I never went there as a non-member and as I sat there and watched tour groups going through....I wondered what do they think? How do they feel? One day I said to Chelsea I couldn't be a non-member and live in Salt Lake...I think I would find it too confusing....and she agreed with me.
The blessings of the gospel are everywhere...it doesn't matter where you live...I know that. The Lord blesses according to how not where we live....but I would be lying if I said this week didn't have me wishing to live there.... or at least someday serve a mission there. Chelsea told me if she meets someone from there she would like to get married in the Salt Lake Temple and I can't think of anything nicer than having my whole family there for a few days to attend a wedding.
I am grateful to have had this experience, for my testimony of the restored gospel, for special feelings and whisperings of the spirit that once again testified of Christ and His love and concern for us as His brothers and sisters. I am grateful for my husband and children and grandchildren that have chosen( so far) the better path....that someday we may all dwell with the Savior once again....
Here is a little video of my experience in Utah I hope you enjoy it. I sure did!
