•Temple! 5/22/2013

kamusta tanan!
It's been a awesome day here - got to go to the temple!  The spirit was so strong - I felt so close to God!
anyways, I've been learning a lot about the eternities lately (particularly the Plan of Salvation).  It's interesting to think about how since God is our Eternal Father, we can eventually grow to become like him just like any child becomes like a parent.  However, at this mortal stage, as Dieter F. Uchtdorf described, we are like awkward toddlers compared to him.  He wants us to continue to progress and grow, despite the times we trip and stumble and fall.  However, they congratulate us when we get stuff right and do not scold us for tripping, but instead encourage us on as we learn to progress in the spiritual/eternal perspective.
So for now, I'm going to continue to strive and improve in the language and everything else.  One thing I'm trying to do better on is why/how to obey the things which have been commanded.  To do that I studied about the "higher law" found in 3Nephi12 and 
hope all's well with you and yours!
