Means I get to go through all of the temple! Along with this comes increasing my covenants with God and therefore my accountability. Another big plus to going through all of the ordinances in the temple is a greater understanding; it's a big learning experience about life and God and my purpose. This first time I go through, I'll make the covenants for myself, and then after that I do vicarious work for others who didn't get the opportunity during their life to make these covenants for themselves, and that repetition also increases my learning and renews my own commitments =) So exciting! Well and plus I get to see more of the temple than just the baptistry (and it's goooorgeous)So there's that =) I am mostly excited to feel that much closer to Heavenly Father--He definitely dwells in His house. Also, it's meaningful to me to know how far I've come in life--being temple worthy and then going to the temple to make these covenants is something we constantly strive toward. So it's so great to be here! =) Lemme know if you have more questions!
What does this mean?
