One of the great joys of working in the temple is talking to people and hearing their stories and how the Lord has been involved in their lives. Every person I talked to today had a great story. I will share a couple and save some for another time.
We had a 25 year old young man come to the temple for the first time. He has worked hard to come back to the church and prepare to receive his endowment. His mother was so happy. (Aren't we all when our children make good eternal decisions?) She was married in the temple, the husband started criticizing church leaders and fell out of the church and the marriage, and then proclaimed he was gay. Three of her four children have now managed to hold fast.
These are the missionaries that have worked with him. He is working on submitting his missionary papers. He was so thrilled with the whole day. It was wonderful to be part of it.
These two I introduced as they were walking out the door. They are both temple workers but I made the connection today that they are both in physics. She is a post doctoral researcher in laser something and he is working on his masters . They both commented on how they love the films and marvel at all the laws of physics involved in the creation. They walked out of the door chatting about the wonderful world of physics.
