September Simple Pleasures #16

#16. The Temple
I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. In other words, I'm a mormon. I'm pretty sure I've mentioned that before. Driving around, maybe you've seen an LDS Temple. They are beautiful buildings that have an even more beautiful purpose. You can read about that here.

I love the Temple. I love the feeling of peace not only inside, but on the grounds. I love going. The closest one to us (right now) is the Mesa Temple. That's the temple I went to for the first time, and the one I was married in.

This is inscribed on every temple. I can testify that it is true. The Spirit of the Lord dwells here. Go to the grounds, visit the visitor's center. The beauty will take your breath away and you will feel the Spirit.

I'm so grateful for the Temple.
