temple tears

So I went on my LAST youth temple trip today.

I was really reluctant of going because I did my last temple trip in May, and the young single adults were going to the beach [Have I mentioned that I LOVEEEEE the beach? & I've only been there like 6 times this summer] but I decided I really should go. I went and at first it felt awkward, I was the OLDEST youth there and it seemed like I was just out of place. Then one of the workers gave me attitude and I was like what the heck? Whatever, so I was just in a bad mood. Then I got dressed and was waiting, sitting on the pew and I just started tearing up. I had no idea what was going on and why I was starting to cry. I just sat there and felt I needed to pray. So I said a prayer, not my normal one, I actually poured out my heart. The Spirit was SO strong. I couldn't hold it in anymore, I just cried. I felt so stupid but then Megan Irrizary put her hand on my back and it just made me feel better :). I stopped crying and still felt the Spirit so strong. Later Alexandra came and sat next to me and she was crying and my brother was being baptized for her grandpa, and just looking at her and looking at Ryan, I just bawled. Alexandra and I just sat there, embraced in each others arms, crying. It was such a touching moment.


I'm really glad I went. I needed this.
It was pretty amazing and I'm really glad I did, I would of regret it if I didn't.
