Navarro-Conder: The Big Day is Coming...

I am getting very excited for my sister's wedding this coming Saturday! She has waited a very long time and it's finally here. I am so happy that she is marrying a good man who is her best friend. I get to be her escort in the temple, since my mom is deceased. I get to help her in the Bride's room. I get to be apart of her special day in a special way. What an honor!

I am so eternally grateful for temples. The Temple is the House of the Lord where we can receive ordinances that bind us for eternity and where we can perform saving ordinances for our kindred dead. I am grateful that because of Jesus Christ's atonement I am worthy to be in such a sacred haven.

Over the years, I have received much personal revelation and added strength for my life, as a single mother to five special boys because of weekly temple attendance. I have also been blessed to have received personal revelation about my "near-future" life that involves a righteous husband with a good heart, an eternal friend, and a wonderful posterity because of our union. I hope in those things to come and know that my Faith is only being tested in his Timing of it all. I want it now... He says wait a while longer. He knows best and I trust in that everyday. My knowledge of the glimspes He's granted me keeps me going. The Lord is so good to me and all of us.

If you want the mundane in your life to turn into extra-ordinary - go to the temple. If you want added spiritual strength - go to the temple. If you want peace that passes all understanding - go to the temple. If you want to be a better wife, husband, father, mother - go to the temple. If you want to feel an incredible source of LOVE and approval - go to the temple. We are all welcome. Get your life in order so you can bask in the blessings offered only there. Nothing else on this earth will offer you what can be offered in the Lord's Holy House. Until next time...
