We went to the Draper Temple today :))
It's so beautiful and we got to do sealings! We did proxy ceremonies it was so special because the "sealing" ceremony enables families to be sealed together for eternity. It is one of the greatest blessings of the gospel, for your family to be together even after this life.
Not a lot of craziness this week except I saw the Gibbs family from home!! Natalie if you're reading this I love you!! It was so fun seeing your fam!!
The only other actually I remember something crazy from this week is that a random dude came to the roof of the Conference Center and just started taking his clothes off. . . the Sisters called security p fast. We get a lot of crazy people here at Temple Square but I guess there were crazy people at the temple during Christ's time too haha.
A passage that stuck out to me though from this week is Mosiah 24:14-15:
"And I will also ease the burdens which are put upon your shoulders, that even you cannot feel them upon your backs, even while you are in bondage; and this will I do that ye may stand as witnesses for me hereafter, and that ye may know of a surety that I, the Lord God, do visit my people in their afflictions.
And now it came to pass that the burdens which were laid upon Alma and his brethren were made light; yea, the Lord did strengthen them that they could bear up their burdens with ease, and they did submit cheerfully and with patience to all the will of the Lord."
The Lord truly will yolk Himself to us. Our burdens will feel light upon our backs when we let Him lift them! **see Matthew 11:28**
So let Him lift you. It's a lifelong pursuit of yielding up everything to Christ. To be humble enough to say, "I can't do this alone" and give everything you are, or aren't, to Him.
I love y'all dearly! Have the best week.
