This evening was amazing! I went to the Temple with a friend to join with me to do a Baptistery Session for the youth from my Ward and it's my Missionary's 20th Birthday. We went to the same Temple where my Missionary and I first met when he was 18 and I was 16. It was great to do Temple Work on my Missionary's Birthday. I was so excited and happy to tell him through his next email about it.
If you can't see the Image, it says "I know your lives are busy. I know that you have much to do. But I make you a promise that if you will go to the house of the Lord, you will be blessed; life will be better for you. - Gordon B. Hinckley."
I know sometimes we don't make an effort to go to the Temple often because of our busy schedules throughout the week. My Mum and I have been making an effort to go to the Temple together twice a month. Sometimes, I go more than twice a month and take the opportunity to go to the Temple often. I live 1 hour to 1 hour and 30 minutes from the Temple depending on traffic. Some of you are so lucky to live right near the Temple and it's sad that you may not go to the Temple a lot.
I think my Missionary got jealous when I told him how many times that I was going with the youth when I was in Young Women's which was going once of every three months and I always had to wait every three months to get a one time off Temple Recommend. He says "Really? That's a bummer to wait especially when you live so close to it." Then I explained to him how close I live from the Temple, he told me about how far is he from the nearest Temple and he even told me "I wish I lived that close to the Temple." We both kept talking until his phone was about to die.
My Missionary's current area is close to the Temple, but unfortunate thing is that Missionaries don't go to the Temple a lot. My words of advice is to take the advantage to go to the Temple while you are living close to the Temple.
