Where can I turn for PEACE??

Where can I turn for peace? That is the theme of most of my days lately. The things of the world can be so discouraging, so negative, so hopeless. I have found that the ONLY place I can feel total and complete peace is in the house of the Lord. The temple. The holiest of all places. I walk in those beautiful doors and instantly relax. My problems seem lighter, my burdens feel a little less weighty. I commune with my Heavenly Father. I can be close to those on the other side of the veil. I can be still and hear the whisperings of the Spirit. I have made it a goal to go every week. I was on my way to the temple 2 weeks ago talking to my friend on the phone and was informed the temple was closed for cleaning!! I did not know this!!! I was dressed and literally on my way. So, I wasn't able to go for 2 weeks and boy did I feel it!! I have grown to love going every week. I hope I can continue to go every week. I need to go every week. I need to be at peace so I can go on with life. The temple is truly a blessing. Heaven on Earth

  1. I need to start going way more often. Life just gets more complicated. I am so grateful for the peace the gospel can bring into our lives, but we have to invite it in. Going to the temple is a great way. I've been thinking lots about you. Hugs!!!
