Wonderful Wednesday's

So as I may have mentioned I started working in the Temple on Wednesday's in the morning.  The shift goes from 5:30 am to 12 noon.  It has been a great blessing so far.  This week on my "schedule" as you rotate through different things I was a "sealing patron".  Me being new to the whole temple thing didn't know what that meant.  I was super nervous and exciting.  I made my way to 3rd floor of the temple and dressed.  What a wonderful experience.  I was overcome with the spirit and even just reliving this experience right now I am in tears.  May of you know that the spirit is directly related to my tear ducts.  Well sitting there in the sealing room on Wednesday I reflected on my life and where I thought it would go and where it has gone.  The sealer stopped and shared so insight from President Faust which was moving and as we began ordinances again I tried to concentrate on the names and had a prayer in my heart that they would understand what we were doing for them.  At one point at the start of an ordinance I was overcome with the spirit and felt like we were surrounded by those for whom we were preforming the ordinance.  The sealer was overwhelmed and as tears streamed down his face and mine, I knew that family was there.  That they had been waiting, that they were prepared and that joy was breath taking.  I am so thankful for the opportunity that I have to serve in this capacity.  What a wonderful blessing!
