Dear Reader,
Temples are amazing. They are the only place where a man and a woman can be sealed together forever by the power of the priesthood. I was able to witness this firsthand on Saturday when my roommate and his wife knelt across the alter in the Timpanogos Temple as they were sealed for eternity.
There was so much happiness in that sealing room during the ceremony. As the couple walked in, there was a huge smile on both their faces. Jacob (My roommate) and I have known each other for a long time. I was actually on his first date with McKay (his wife). Don't worry; it was a double date. That night as we were talking about dating and what we liked about the date that day I told him, "I like you two. There is a good feeling about her." Sure enough, just over 5 months later they are now sealed for all eternity through and by the power of the priesthood.
Of course we also enjoyed their reception later that night, but I was enjoying the fact that they are perfect for each other. Neither of them are perfect, but it is amazing how great of a relationship they have. It reminds me of a scripture in the Bible that says, "Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord." (1 Corinthians 11:11)
Like I told my roommates at the reception, "If I can have a relationship half as cute and good as theirs, I will be a happy man." Good luck with your eternity together, Jacob and McKay!
