Duh'!!!

OK, so Sunday, Bro. York stopped me and asked if he and the bishop could visit with me this week (tonight, Tuesday). I said sure, 5:30 would be fine. So, tonight I'm at home, waiting for them to come by. About 5:45 bro. York calls to remind me of our appointment. That's when it occurs to me that perhaps I'm supposed to meet the bishop at the church. Duh'!!
So, I say, "I'll be right over" and I rush out the door. As I'm walking into the church, I think to myself, "maybe I should have put on a skirt or something?" I'm wearing walking shorts and an ok top.
I sure hope I didn't come across as disrespectful.

So, all week (well all 2 days since Sunday) I've been wondering what kind of calling I'm going to be getting.
Well, that wasn't it at all.
Bishop just wanted to sort of touch base and see how I'm doing. It's been brought to his attention, that I've been considering getting myself ready to go to the temple. So, he kind of went through the list of questions with me, to help me see if there are any areas I need to work on. Of course, there are. So, hopefully over the next month or so I can work on them, and I think I have a little thinking to do as well, to determine if there are any other issues/areas I need to work on before entering the Lords house.
Wish me luck.

That is wonderful! I will never forget the first time I went through the Temple. Believe me...you will never forget it.

It was such a Beautiful Experience. I would go on and on....but I won't! :) I am happy for you!!

Oh yeah...one word of advice: Now that you are getting ready to go, the Adversary will be working SUPER HARD on you to keep you from going. Don't Let Him Win!!!

Merrianne-he already is working on me I think. But, I won't let him win.

Good Luck!! It is definitely something you won't regret. The blessings that will come your way will be amazing. Take a class if there's one available & Ditto to what Merrianne said. He'll do anything to keep you away. Just recognize his little annoying attempts to make you fail for what they are. Don't expect it to stop once you've gone either. It never fails, the day we have set aside to go is always filled with a few challenges. Sometimes to the point that we feel like it would be way easier to stay home. Ya just gotta keep pluggin' along and GO!
