Our talks in sacrament

HeyYaLL! Wow its been a while since I last wrote... I have been so busy, Im out of school and Im still busy as ever... Anyways, I had to blog really quicKK right before I go to bed because today was such an awesome day. Kel and I spoke in sacrament today... For Kel it was his first time talking since his farewell, so it really was a special day for him, as for me, I haven't spoke since before Kels farewell, so I was a little rusty. We had assigned talks, which at first I didnt like... but it turned out PERFECT! I spoke on Celestial Marriage and Kel spoke on a conference talk by Joesph B. Worthlin called "Come what may and love it." I was so nervous when writing my talk because I am not sealed to anyone. Not my parents and not to Kel and Jaida. So I wrote my talk and when I finished it, I really wasn't satisfied at all. I felt that I didn't have what it takes to talk about this topic. Kel had a hard time too, he wanted to talk about Brianna and what he learned through her, but he really wanted to talk about his mission and coming home, so he tied that into his talk. Ok so we finished our talks and I emailed them to myself so that I could go to my moms house a print out the talks cause we haven't hooked up our printer yet. We left our house about a half an hour early so that we could sit down and gather our thoughts and the spirit before we talked...yeah that totally didn't happen!!! It was a nightmare...I was at my moms house trying to print out our talks and for some reason my moms computer wouldn't open the file!! I was freaking out...after trying for like 15 minutes I ran out t o the car and told Kel to just go... and Ill come with my mom when I figure it out. ok...so church started at nine and it was getting close...when I kept trying and trying I sat calmly and looked at my mom and told her that I was about to freak out...LOL so my mom runs out the door to all the neighbors trying to ask people if we can use their printer...LOL but HELLO...everyone was already at church. At 9:15 I finally figured it out and they printed... THANK YOU! gosh I could seriously feel myself about to have a heart attack. So we got to church about 9:20 at the end of sacrament, I was first to talk and I could see Kels face light up before I walked in. I was so nervous cause ab out 2 minutes before I started talking I was almost in panic mode... I got up to the stand and I felt as if I was standing under a rain storm...seriously, as I was reading my talk I felt the spirit and the love of the lord poor down on me like rain. I read through my talk with gratitude to my heavenly father for comforting me with his presence. I talked about Celestial marriage and how through that we can be together with our heavenly father as a family forever. I expressed to everyone how much I loved Jaida and how she brings out the best in Kel and I. I talked about how important my family was to me and how I want to be with them forever. And how grateful I was to the lord for giving me life so that I can experience this overwhelming feeling of happiness through repentance and forgiveness. I expressed my gratitude to my heavenly father for having so much trust in me to give Jaida to me. I ended my talk feeling satisfied but I wondered if everyone else felt the love that I did. Kel talked after a hymn break and his talk was AMAZING! He spoke on coming home early from a mission and how he felt like such a failure for letting everyone down. He told us of how his family was there to support him through it all and how he couldn't of done it without them. He tied Come what may and love it into his talk and told about how he had to embrace the learning experience that this trial was for him and how by learning from it, he was able to love it. I really cant write about how great his talk was, because no matter what I write I cant explain in words what a great meeting it was. We had the support of all our family from Salt Lake, and our family here. It was truly and amazing experience. I thought that I wouldn't be able to talk about Celestial marriage but I know now why that talk was chosen for me and why Kels was chosen for him. Even though my morning was really crazy, Heavenly Father blessed everyone in that meeting and everything came together like a puzzle. I had a mother that came up to me in tears thanking us for our talk. She explained to me that her daughter is going through the same thing and that for some reason her daughter felt that she had to go to church today, and she told us that she knew that our talks were directed by our heavenly father to her. I had one of the counselors say to me that for some reason, the attendance today was sky high, a lot of our inactive members that needed to hear this came to church today and that he knew that they were directed by the spirit of the lord to come. My brother in law told us that when we finished he heard a couple behind him say that the meeting was one of the best meetings that that ward has had. I am so humbled to know that our heavenly father loves us so much. He works in mysterious ways and I'm so grateful to him for blessing Kel and I with his love so that we could reach out to others so that they could feel his love too. That talk wasn't only for everyone there, but it was for Kel and I too. We both seen right before our very eyes heavenly father physically bringing together his children so that we all could all feel his tremendous love for us. I love this Gospel and I'm so grateful for the perfect love he has for us. Thank you to all those who came out to support us, bubs, LAme, betty, Cia, my mom and Eric...and the the kids... Im so glad that we got to share this experience with all of you. And to my father in law...YOU ARE CARZYYY!!!! LOL but the effort means just as much as if you were there... Much Love...
