to the temple and gets enlightened.

I had the wonderful opportunity to travel to Utah this year. I was apprehensive about it but hadn't see my friend for 23 years. This gal is amazing, but that is another story. She took me to this beautiful temple the Mormons are building. It hasn't been dedicated yet so regular people like me ca go visit. Besides beautiful architecture, there are wonderful paintings and chandeliers. One of the most beautiful places I have ever visited. We had to wear booties over our shoes like doctors to keep the white carpet clean. I have never seen such a place! 

We were talking about how God sacrificed Jesus for our sins. I told her I didn't think I could sacrifice my son for all the awfulness of the people in this world. (I personally know how awful I am.) She asked me if I would you sacrifice him to save my daughter. I never thought of it that way, and she went on to say for her and for all of us since we're all God's children. That changed my way of thinking so much. God never really lost Jesus. He raised from the dead and with God now and we all have the opportunity to be with both of them. 

No, I'm not giving either of my children up for death. I would give my last breath for them to live. God though had his plan to save us all if we make that choice. It was a great revelation to me to see it her way and I'm so glad she enlightened me.
