Do you ever have those moments where you learn something new, and it just hits you that it's a reality? It exists, it's real, it's TRUE. I had one of those moments today. My dad read me an amazing story about a young boy today, and it strengthened my testimony of angels and their ever-constant presence in our lives. (I would go to this link and read it...you won't regret it) http://www.snopes.com/glurge/birdies.asp
I felt the spirit so strongly as he read this story to me, and I gained a greater appreciation for the temple and for our deceased ancestors and friends. I know without a doubt after today that we have angels that are always with us. They protect, help, and comfort us. Isn't it beautiful to know that we are never alone? I also know that temple work is so vital to our salvation and the salvation of those who came before us. There are people waiting, yearning to have their temple work done. They want it so badly. I feel so strongly that we will be blessed for going to the temple and doing the work of our kindred dead. Just think about the day you were baptized, or the day you were sealed in the temple (I haven't reached that one yet haha). Imagine if you had gone your whole life without that, died, and then realized in heaven what you had missed out on! Would you not give anything to be granted those blessings? It is our duty and obligation to free and help our kindred spirits. I have no doubt that we will be blessed and guarded for helping them.
