Alma 7:13 Now the Spirit knoweth all things...
This was the scripture we read before we said our family prayer. It was the prayer before the family fast. I think we've made our decision and want the inspiration from Heavenly Father that it is a righteous choice.
The previous weekend was busy. I took Thursday and Friday off as vacation and we went to Prescott Valley so the whole family could see the place we're contemplating moving. The previous week was the Gilbert Temple dedication. On the way back from Prescott Valley we stopped at Auntie G and Uncle Js overnight. The next morning we got up and went to the North Phoenix Temple which is under construction and talked about how beautiful it looked from the car. We talked about how important Temple marriage is to the eternal destiny of God's children. The boys unanimously agreed that they would be married in the Temple. But that is our testimony speaking not theirs. They need to know through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit for themselves that this is God's church on the Earth and that the doctrines of the Gospel are true. I've prayed they will feel inspired and know what it feels like to receive personal revelation as the Holy Spirit touches their hearts.
Tonight, after the pre-fast prayer, DG10 came over to me weeping. I asked what was the matter. He said he felt so happy and he was overcome. He said he always wanted to feel that happy. I asked why he was feeling so happy and he said it was the Spirit. I was touched that my prayer for him had been answered by a loving Heavenly Father. I will record his own account of the experience here and then print it for him so he'll remember it until the next time.
