Last night we went to an awesome devotional at the largest chapel and rec. hall I have ever seen in one of our churches ! It was full and the power vibes in that room were awesome..almost tangible !! Our main speaker was Elder L. Whitney Clayton in the presidency of the seventy and from our ward in Whittier as kids growing up. He asked about my eldest brother by name as they are the same age and asked about mom as he knew dad was dead. His memory is amazing ! It was an awesome meeting. He made a great analogy..as the San Diego Temple was being built he lived in Irvine and commuted past it each day to San Diego for business...he watched them clear and level the land and start building and it did not slow traffic at all until the spires went up...but it almost brought traffic to a stand still when angel Moroni went up...He compared this to our spiritual development as we have to clear the field and start to build our own spirituality and as we gain more it starts to be obvious and visible and the world takes notice and wants to know more. It took 10 thousand scaffolds to cover the temple and over 50 thousand gallons of coating to resurface the outside.
