After a very long and busy day, it was time to go home. We remembered that the baptism gowns were still in the bag and needed to be ironed, but because we were so tired, we just took them out and laid them flat on the chairs at church. After everyone left and we were going to close the temple, the Pastora looked at me and told me this gown needed to be ironed. Without hesitation, we put the gowns in a box, and I brought them home. While at home, I was looking at the box this verse came to my mind: “that He might present it to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that it should be holy and without blemish” Ephesians 5:27. Without thinking about it too much, I took out my iron and got to work. After I was done, tears came down as I thought about how far many of our candidates have come. Tomorrow is a very important day for all of them, and we pray that God will show them how loved they are. Praying for a blessed day.
