Five reasons why it is so great to get up at 5:00AM!
1. Early to bed, early to rise. This has really helped me get in a better routine, which makes for a super productive day. I have most things done by noon..ha Ok not noon, but close!
2. I am meeting some wonderful people. Big hearts, kind souls, gifted spirits. Great friends.
3. There is much to memorize, it has stretched me and reminded me of the importance of memorization. Guess what I often have in my head all day. :)
4. The flowers smell amazing, I love just being on temple grounds, such a beautiful place.
Last, and most important
5. I get to be in the Lord's house every week. After my very first shift, I told my mom my cheeks hurt from smiling. I recognize more of who I am, and the potential I have the more I am in the House of the Lord.
I love to see the temple, and love even more that I get to go inside! If you have not been in a while, go! It is a win-win situation. Absolutely no bad will come out of it! This should be top priority.
Amanda, thank you for this. Wow! I needed your comment. Sometimes I feel like I am just a little too busy, but you have inspired me.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad! This weekend will be another inspiration for us all, I love conference weekend!
DeleteI am constantly telling myself that I need to make time to go to the temple, yet month by month it doesn't seem to happen. You are so very inspiring, going each week! That is amazing! I need to be more like you. I need to just schedule it in and make it a priority, because every time I go I am also so very happy and filled with the spirit, and there is nothing that overrules that.
