I love to see the temple.

From November 10, 2014

This week was a good week. On Tuesday I got to go to Santa Ana for the monthly leadership council. It was really good. I always like to go learn from President, the assistants, and all the other zone leaders. I always leave that meeting with a renewed work ethic. We also went to the temple this week. I hadn't been to the temple for a long time. I kind of miss being able to go every week like I could before the mission. The temple is really a wonderful place. I would challenge everyone to go at least once a month. If you aren't worthy to go, get worthy to go. If by chance you are not a member become a member. It is necessary to our salvation and the salvation of our ancestors. It is also a place where you can go to recharge the spiritual batteries even more than you can at church. It is also a place where you can go to pray and get answers to questions.
I was studying in 2 Nephi 32-33. Nephi talks about how important the sciptures are. 
 2 Nephi 32:
3 Angels speak by the power of the Holy Ghost; wherefore, they speak the words of Christ. Wherefore, I said unto you, feast upon the words of Christ; for behold, the words of Christ will tell you all things what ye should do.

 4 Wherefore, now after I have spoken these words, if ye cannot understand them it will be because ye ask not, neither do ye knock; wherefore, ye are not brought into the light, but must perish in the dark.

 5 For behold, again I say unto you that if ye will enter in by the way, and receive the Holy Ghost, it will show unto you all things what ye should do.

I also like in chapter 33 when Nephi gives his testimony of the words which he had written
2 Nephi 33:
 10 And now, my beloved brethren, and also Jew, and all ye ends of the earth, hearken unto these words and believe in Christ; and if ye believe not in these words believe in Christ. And if ye shall believe in Christ ye will believe in these words, for they are the words of Christ, and he hath given them unto me; and they teach all men that they should do good.

 11 And if they are not the words of Christ, judge ye—for Christ will show unto you, with power and great glory, that they are his words, at the last day; and you and I shall stand face to face before his bar; and ye shall know that I have been commanded of him to write these things, notwithstanding my weakness.

 14 And you that will not partake of the goodness of God, and respect the words of the Jews, and also my words, and the words which shall proceed forth out of the mouth of the Lamb of God, behold, I bid you an everlasting farewell, for these words shall condemn you at the last day.

 15 For what I seal on earth, shall be brought against you at the judgment bar; for thus hath the Lord commanded me, and I must obey. Amen.

READ the Book of Mormon.
Thanks for everything.
Have a great week
-Elder Rowberry
