"No Safer Place"

Elder M. Russell Ballard said today in his address during the Oquirrh Mountain Temple dedication that there is "no safer place to be than in the temple." Each person who talked had such an amazing spirit in their message. I especially loved it when President Monson said that we have so many rooms in our house--rooms to sleep, rooms to eat, rooms to watch TV and recreate. He just hoped that we had "room" in our lives for the Savior Jesus Christ. His beautiful and poignant dedicatory prayer was read by President Eyring. Pres. Monson gave us his apostalic blessing and asked us to "touch the temple and permit the temple to touch us." This dedication service was a beautiful and uplifting experience. I felt so blessed to see and hear it! What a wonderful Sabbath Day this has been. I love the temple and I love to be in the Lord's house often. Being there with my family members is "THE BEST!"
