Draper Temple Open House!




I love to see the temple, I went inside today! There was something absolutely thrilling about walking past that front desk into the unknown territory. Some day I'll get to learn more about the specifics of that place, but for now it was wonderful to walk through that building, un-dedicated, and yet so full of the spirit. When I walked into the celestial room I felt like I was in Heavenly Father's living room, and I didn't want to leave. An enormous chandelier hung from the vaulted ceiling. In sealing room I marveled at the power of the priesthood and of ordinances. I was grateful that my family is forever. Someday I will be sealed for time and all eternity. What a glorious time to be alive!

I like how you describe the Celestial room. That is EXACTLY how I felt. It made me so homesick haha. It was my first open house and it was so beautiful. I like how when you are endowed there are places to go and just sit. It seems like beforehand you just go to do baptisms and you can reflect while you wait. I can't wait to go through the temple. ;)
