Yesterday we went to the temple for an endowment session (Murdo Cameron).  The Spirit was strong and there were some new changes in the presentation which made it even better.

Went to dinner with the Hansons and enjoyed visiting with them. 

We also walked  in the canyon again in the morning and I got my steps in.

Come Follow Me 

 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

 19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.

A large part of what is being taught in this part of 1st Corinthians seems to deal with sexual relations of all types... Both within marriages and otherwise. I am grateful that this is an area that is no problem for me. I have been married since 1977 to the love of my life and have been true to her in every way. She has made it very easy for me because she is so lovely and loving. She truly has been one of God's greatest blessings to me. I have my share of behavioral problems but sex is not one of them and I am thankful for that.
