The temple never ceases to amaze me. I am glad that Endrit and I have always lived within a couple of hours of a temple. It has been one of the biggest blessings of our marriage. Upon going to the temple our first times, Endrit and I made the goal of going once a month. To this day we have kept that promise to each other. 4 years and 3 months so far for Endrit and 4 years and 6 months for me. With the temple cleaning at the SLC temple this month and family visits, we almost missed this month. We were able to go to the 7:00 pm session today. We always feel so peaceful and uplifted while we are there. Today was one of the more peaceful sessions that I have had the opportunity to go through. Life has been a little rough for the last month and a half since we have gone. Endrit has his pre-oral that he is preparing for and I am entering my last year of my bachelors while doing summer school. It has been hectic. We went through and got everything confirmed that it will all work out and that we are on the specific path that the Lord wants us on.
I love knowing that I have the Lord on my side. I love knowing that I can turn to Him in all things big and small. I love personal revelation and peace in knowing that you are doing the right things for YOU. I love praying in the temple and feeling as close to God as I can on this Earth.
I had a great night. My heart is full. I am ready for the next month of challenges before I will have the priviledge to enter the temple again. I am excited for the 10th of August. I will have the opportunity to go to the temple on a Monday in order to clean it. I know it is only vaccuming or slight painting, but it is something that I can do physically for the Earthly home of the Lord.

What is even greater is knowing that YOU are on the Lord's side. I'm glad you had a peaceful time. I'm looking forward to the Logan Temple reopening after cleaning. I've been under a lot of stress that isn't going away yet. Love you.
We just missed you, we would have called but we were RUNNING. Ok so thurs. night we drive to Bountiful to go to the temple, ans it's closed, so we race to SL we walk in at the last second and they hold the last session oof the night 3 minutes for us to get dressed. So I have finally been to a live session. I too love the temple.
