Worth Waiting For

One day at church, not long after I had graduated high school,

we sang the song

"I Love to See the Temple". 

I broke down in tears. 

The spirit testified to me of the importance of the temple

I knew that I wanted to go to the temple,

that I was going to do anything and everything to get there.

So over the next 2 years, I prepared myself

I changed
My testimony grew
I learned who I was

I was a Daughter of God

As I watched my cousin get baptized this past weekend

and as we sang the same song 

I remembered that experience I had years ago. 

As I rubbed my growing belling

and looked at my handsome husband,

I knew that I had made the right choice. 

I knew that because of her parents actions

and their desire to do what's right, 

Our daughter would be sealed to us for eternity. 

I pray for my children

my cousins 

My brother

My sisters-in-law

For the kids in primary 

I pray that they will know who they are
that they will be strong,

be different,

be patient. 

That they will wait.

Because it is
WORTH WAITING FOR
