15 - And inasmuch as my people build a house unto me in the name of the Lord, and do not suffer any unclean thing to come into it, that it be not defiled, my glory shall rest upon it;
16 - Yea, and my presence shall be there, for I will come into it, and all the pure in heart that shall come into it shall see God.
It's a good day to have a scripture about the temple. James and I attended our ward temple night this evening and then afterwards we helped to clean the temple. We left the house at 4:20 in hopes of going by and getting gas and washing the car. As soon as we got to Show Low James realized he had forgotten his temple clothes so we turned around and raced back to Vernon. We missed the chapel session at 6 but made it in time for the endowment session. This was our first session in the Snowflake temple. There were 37 patrons in our session and 36 were from our ward. The temple workers were all from our ward, Sister Tieman, Sister Peeler, Brother Peeler, and Brother Lauritzen. The Snowflake temple is a small temple and I loved the intimacy. I so enjoyed the session and James and I participated in the prayer circle. After the session i helped Sister4 Peeler clean the sister's and matron's restroom. James and I stopped at the Sonic in Taylor for dinner on the way home. We were home before 11.
It's 45 miles to the Snowflake temple.
We went an extra 50 when we went back for James's clothes.
All in all we traveled 2 hours and 20 minutes.
It was worth it!
In other news I made white chocolate macadamian nut cookies. They were delicious, my new favorites. It snowed and blowed some more today and the sun also shined.
