Temple Tuesday #38

It would be a fine thing if … parents would have in every bedroom in their house a picture of the temple so [their children] from the time [they are] infant[s] could look at the picture every day [until] it becomes a part of [their lives]. When [they reach] the age that [they need] to make [the] very important decision [concerning going to the temple], it will have already been made. - President Spencer W. Kimball

A big weekend in Daybreak : Art and Gift Shows, Food Festival, Live Music, Kids Activities, Silent Auction, Food Drive

You probably know that the Oh Sweet Sadie! Art and Gift show is coming this week, but did you know that Saturday will the Fizz Fest and LOTS of fun stuff to Soda Row from 5-9? Click on the flyer to read all about it. I'm super excited!

Put it on your calendar and come say hi. I'll be splitting myself into 4 as I bounce back and forth between my temple photography at OSS and the Daybreak Art Walk and between representing LiveDAYBREAK as the Giving Back Chair at the Silent Auction for Daybreak to DebreZeit and the Veggie Exchange benefitting the local Food Bank...aaaaahh! This just might put me into labor...that, or permanent bed rest ;)

Temple Tuesday #37

Come to the temple and then come again. Making and keeping temple covenants will keep us on course to the greatest of all blessings—eternal life. - Barbara Thompson

Temple Tuesday #36

Temple ordinances guide us to our Savior and give us the blessings that come to us through the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Temples are the greatest university of learning known to man, giving us knowledge and wisdom about the Creation of the world. Endowment instructions give guidance as to how we should conduct our lives here in mortality. … The ordinance consists of a series of instructions on how we should live and covenants we make to live righteously by following our Savior.” - Robert D. Hales

Temple Tuesday #35

"There are more temples across the earth than there have ever been. More people in all the world have felt the Spirit of Elijah move them to record the identities and facts of their ancestors' lives."—Henry B. Eyring

Temple Tuesday #34

"True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic. It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost." - Arthur Ashe
Los Angeles LDS Temple
What do you sacrifice to serve in the temple or in your community? A movie with your spouse or friends? Money for a babysitter? Grocery shopping without kids? A hobby? How will you be a hero this week and make service a priority?

Temple Tuesday 33

"I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough; we must do." - Da Vinci (not exactly a temple quote, but very applicable to all of life's decisions, including attending the temple and fulfilling other religious responsibilies)

"The temple is the house of the Lord. The basis for every temple ordinance and covenant…is the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Every activity, every lesson, all we do in the Church, point to the Lord and His holy house."—Russell M. Nelson

Temple Tuesday #31

"The temple endowment was given by revelation. Thus, it is best understood by revelation, prayerfully sought with a sincere heart. "—Russell M. Nelson

Temple Tuesday #30

"As we come unto Christ and journey to higher ground, we will desire to spend more time in His temples, because the temples represent higher ground, sacred ground."—Joseph B. Wirthlin

Temple Tuesday #29

O that I were an angel, and could have the wish of mine heart, that I might go forth and speak with the trump of God...I would declare unto every soul, as with the voice of thunder, repentance and the plan of redemption, that they should repent and come unto our God, that there might not be more sorrow upon all the face of the earth. -Alma 29

So I know it isn't entirely a temple quote, but I absolutely love this scripture! Since most of our temples are topped with the angel Moroni as the lightning rod, a quote on angels and spreading the gospel seem appropriate :) Let us all be more determined and courageous in accepting, living, and sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Temple Tuesday #28

"No jot, iota, or tittle of the temple rites is otherwise than uplifting and sanctifying. In every detail the endowment ceremony contributes to covenants of morality of life, consecration of person to high ideals, devotion to truth, patriotism to nation, and allegiance to God."—James E. Talmage
