It seemed that on March 12th, our world as we knew it "blew up".
Now here it is, April 8th.............
This is a portion of the Dedicatory prayer for the Salt Lake Temple on April 6, 1893 by President Wilford Woodruff. It brings me HOPE and COMFORT
“Heavenly Father, when Thy people shall not have the opportunity of entering this holy house to offer their supplications unto Thee, and they are oppressed and in trouble, surrounded by difficulties or assailed by temptation and shall turn their faces toward this Thy holy house and ask Thee for deliverance, for help, for Thy power to be extended in their behalf, we beseech Thee, to look down from Thy holy habitation in mercy and tender compassion upon them, and listen to their cries. Or when the children of Thy people, in years to come, shall be separated, through any cause, from this place, and their hearts shall turn in remembrance of Thy promises to this holy Temple, and they shall cry unto Thee from the depths of their affliction and sorrow to extend relief and deliverance to them, we humbly entreat Thee to Turn Thine ear in mercy to them; hearken to their cries, and grant unto them the blessings for which they ask.”
I know that the temples will re-open, this COVID 19 will pass, and I will rejoice in the day when I can go to the temple once again !
