Wednesday, after an inspired and somewhat difficult journey getting there, I got to go through the temple for the very first time to become endowed.

Just one year ago, on October 15, 2013, a 7.2 magnitude earthquake, the strongest felt in the central Philippines in 23 years, caused severe damage in Bohol and the surrounding area in Cebu.

Exactly two years ago to the day, I went to the Provo Temple and got endowed. It wasn't because I was going on a mission, and it wasn't because I was getting married, (not saying those aren't awesome and just as important reasons, just as long as you're going for you and for the right reasons) I went because I wanted to go on my own, I went because it was individually really important to me. I went because I wanted to be closer to God and strengthen my relationship with Him. Two weeks later, I became an ordinance worker. Since then, and aside from the nights I worked there, I have been to the temple at least every week since this day two years ago. I honestly don't know what I'd do without it. But there are plenty of those who have not yet been and have questions about it. Here are my responses.
