A big day going to the temple

Tomorrow is such a big day for me. Tomorrow I get to enter into the temple for the first time since I was a youth. Tonight I have been reading the New Era, I printed off names to take from family search, and I talked with some of my closest friends and family. 
There is no greater blessing than to do proxy work for my family members that have passed on that are anxiously waiting for their work to be done.
I can't wait to feel the peace and the spirit in the temple. I  also so excited to go with so many loved ones.
The hard work and patience is worth it.
A little voice in my head keeps trying to trick me telling me I am not good enough or worthy enough. Sure I can be and do much better in my life. The important thing that I remind myself is I am worthy and I strive daily to be a better woman.
The key to my success is living my life ONE DAY AT A TIME. Keep it simple. Read, pray, and serve.
I used to be so sad. I couldn't see the colors of the world all i saw was gray. Today I see so much beauty. I see people's smiles. I see the possibilities. I love life!
I can never deny the great plan of redemption because I have been redeemed.
It is taking that first step of faith and ask God what you want to know. Then follow the still small voice. 
I am so grateful. 
I am in tears thinking of what it used to be like and now how wonderful my life is.
I won the lottery of life. The wonderful thing is everyone is entitled to the winning ticket... The Savior gave his life for us so we can be redeemed.
