The Temple

....and now the continuation......
The Temple.....
I am so glad that there are temples in the world today, especially since they are so close. I wish everyone had a testimony about the temples and are able to go and experince them in anyway possible. As I look back at the days before I visited the Temple, I realise that my life had been missing something. I dont know exactly what it was missng but it was crucial to my life.
I woke up early Saturday morning to the sound of a door bell. I jumped out of bed mumbling and growling. My ride to the Düsseldorf Intisitute Building where everyone going was to meet, had arrived and I wasn`t even awake yet. Thankfully I had packed the night before (thank goodness I had bought white underclothes just in case i actually went to the Temple, see it pays to be prepared) and all I needed to do was get dress, which I did at a amazingly speed.
After picking up another Temple Traveler (that is what I will call oursleves in this narration) we arrived at the meeting point on time and ready to go. Once all the Temple Travelers had arrived we squeezed oursleves into two small cars and headed off. It took us around two hours to drive to Frankfurt. There we meet up with all ten to thirteen Temple Travelers. We visited and waited for our Temple Guides. There were three American girls including me. We had our own Temple Guide, how nice.
After a few minutes of preparing oursleves for the Confirmations and Babtisims, we were ready to go. During the Temple Work I felt a overwelming peace settle over me and my Testimony of the Temple became stronger then ever. All I could do was sit with a smile on my face in silence. I couldn´t even read my scriptures I was so happy. Then it was my turn. I cannot put into words everything I felt that day, however I can say that the Temple is cared and shouldn´t be taken lightly. I am proud that Annette and Kent were prepared to enter unto the house of the lord and make bonds and covenants into the lord for all time and eternity. I am proud that Cory and Quinta are about to enter into the same covenants. I know that one day it will be JKens, Viktoria´s and mine turn to go and receive the same.

Once again I love and am proud to be with you all.
Love
