Red Letter Day

Today Melba and I went to the temple for our first quarterly high priest temple day.  Although only a handful of people from our ward attended, it was very special for us because this was the first time Melba has been to the temple in over two years. During that time I always went alone due to her various health challenges which prevented her from enjoying temple worship.  It was truly wonderful to be together as we performed the vicarious service for those unable to do so themselves.  As we sat in the celestial room we quietly pondered the things of eternity and the Lord's great plan of happiness that promises that our marriage union will continue beyond the grave if we endure in our discipleship.  That is a source of great peace to us.
