I serve in the temple each Saturday evening from 4-10 p.m.
When I lived I Arizona, I had specific moments each week where I felt God’s presence closely.
I have had a difficult time feeling the same as frequently since moving to Utah.
Last night was different. I spent more week preparing myself. I put effort into being ready to serve on Saturday night.
And every hour last night I had an experience as powerful as any I was previously used to.
I needed each.
At the end of the night I was spiritually exhausted. But I recognized much of what I felt was due directly because I was prepared.
