Story about the farm. We are never lost when we can see the temple.

Temple will provide direction for you and your family. It will help you not get lost in mists of darkness. King Benjamin said that doors of your tent should be toward the temple. We must follow prophets wards to face temple. Visit the temple more often, replace leisure activities with temple service. Live worthy to attend the temple, even young people. Young children should go visit so they can TOUCH the temple. If we touch it, it will touch us (good touches, presumably).

Temple defined in bible dictionary: most holy, only home is comparable in sacredness. Our homes should be a house of the lord. Take a virtual tour of your home. Let's all close our eyes and do that. Blah blah, refuge, home, temple... images. Our homes should be like the temple. Are we embarrassed about anything INAPPROPRIATE? Good god, I hope not. Do we have outward signs of righteousness like pictures and music and scriptures so that we can show everyone else how righteous we are. Are you righteous?

The lord has established standards. We should establish standards so our homes can be temples, and so that we can push young members further and further away. The hemorrhage of young mormons must continue. Eternal nature of family linked to the temple. Ordinances of temple make our families eternal. Say the word temple over and over again so that we can be more righteous. Add holy temple, so that it can always be capitalized. Home holy temple home holy home temple. Holy temple home, batman!

I love to see the temple, I'm going there some day. I will prepare myself while I am young, this is my sacred duty. I will promise to obey, a family is forever.... primary song. Temples unite families and link us forever into exaltation. temple holy home temple home holy holy holy temple holy home.

You are never lost when you can see the temple. Living prophets are great!

Amen
