This is a religious post. Please be respectful if you chose to disagree with any or all of my religious views.
Yesterday, I had some friends over for a visit. One woman was sharing a story about an associate to whom she looked up to in high school. This associate has married and has 3 sons ages 2, 4, 6. Recently, her 2 year old died tragically. This story has stuck with me over the last couple of days. I have always feared losing one of my children --even before I had children. However, I am so grateful for the eternal perspective and promise of an eternal family.
Roy and I were sealed on December 13, 2002 in a sacred temple by a man ordained with eternal keys. Our family was promised that we could be together forever if we would live up to the covenants we made with God that day. I am so grateful for temples and the priesthood ordinances performed in them. I am so grateful to know that my kids will be my kids forever. I'm grateful to know that I will be sealed to my parents forever. I'm grateful that Roy and I are husband and wife for eternity, not just until we die.
I'm also grateful that temples dot the earth so that all may receive the blessings of the temple.
For those curious about LDS temples, I would encourage you to check out this site's FAQs.
