         Spending every day in the temple is a unique experience and it feels like “home” since we are there so often.  The hallways, the rooms, the beautiful paintings and furnishings that surround us feel so familiar and comfortable.  It is such a blessing to us to be here.

         I helped one rather timid and apprehensive sister today, giving her reassurance and support and she was so grateful and expressed her thanks over and over again.  Krisia (I can’t remember how to spell her name!) came as a patron and looked especially pretty.  She was there to be with a friend who is going on a mission to Guatemala; he leaves next week.  There were sisters who needed help with clothing, some needed directions, others wanted help getting the work done for family name, and someone needed shoes.  All of these seemingly mundane encounters help make my day fulfilling alongside the critical ordinance work.  I just love the people!

         Here are a few more Fundamentals for Following the Prophet    

Fourth:     The prophet will never lead the Church astray.

         Fifth:         The prophet is not required to have any particular                                    earthly training or credentials to speak on any subject                              or act on any matter at any time.

         Sixth:        The prophet does not have to say “Thus saith the Lord” to                            give us scripture.

         Seventh:    The prophet tells us what we need to know, not always                                what we want to know.

            Oops—it just turned into Thursday!  Good Night Everyone!
