It is s silent in my house-other then the sounds of nature outside my kitchen window. Everyone is snuggled in their beds scattered throughout the house. I have been awake for hours. My heart pitter-pattering with excitement and full of emotion. I don't know what it is like to be an emotional pregnant woman...but if it is anything like the cup of emotions I have this morning...Wow.
My cup is so full right now; it is on the verge of running over. How amazing our Father-in-Heaven's plan is-such simplicity and beauty lies in this plan. I've always known in my heart that this was right, but recently its more then right for me...it has become my everything.
Today I enter the temple. Today I take out my endowments. Today I finally accomplish the promise I made to myself all those years ago. The gravity of that accomplishment makes my cup spill over...it is better then any other goal I have set for myself. It defines me. It provides great happiness-and while I know it is not an end point, it is a great check-point.
So in the last few moments of silence I have this morning, I have to say: Oh sweet the joy this sentence gives-I KNOW THAT MY REDEEMER LIVES.
