...I went there today!
Today we went
to the temple and it was so amazing to feel such peace. It was a little
hard because everything was in Português and my vocabulary is very
missionary at the moment. haha but it truely is the house of God.
As I was leaving though I realized that I had been feeling sort of
different. Not like when I had the chance to visit often 7 months ago.
This whole time I´ve been here on my mission and the exact reason I
decided to stay here and serve is because of eternal families. How can I
just sit at home and enjoy the blessings of eternity with the ones I
love and not share that with others? We teach people the gospel so that
they can have eternal families. We have missionaries not so that
everyone can be mormon, but so that people can have eternal families.
Without the authority in God´s church it simply can´t happen.
As I was leaving the temple I realized that´s what it is... I´m on the
journy for myself right now, but the next step is what you do with your
family, being sealed for eternity. Learning more and growing together.
"While I am in my early years, I´ll prepare most carefully, so I can
marry in God´s temple for eternity. Families can be together forever,
through Heavenly Father´s Plan. I always want to be with my own Family
and the Lord has shown me how I can."
Now don´t you all worry. I´m not writing this because I`m trunky all is in it´s due time.
I just needed that little reminder of why we´re all here and thought I´d share.
P.S. my companion is going home on Monday! The update on transfers with arrive next Wednesday!
Love you all!
