A dear older sister (I will call her Anne) who was sitting four people down-pew from me got up and made her way to the stand. She said she had volunteered recently to clean the local temple and was told by the person in charge that they do this two times a year, and that it is important that the temple be clean from top to bottom in order for it to be “completely acceptable” to the Lord.
This caused the sister some personal reflection, and she said that she is trying so hard to eliminate any sinful behaviors in her life so that she can be clean like the temple and also be “completely acceptable” to the Lord.
She closed her comments and slowly made her way back. By the time she was once more seated in the pew, a note was handed down to her from my general direction, written on the back of a program.
She opened it up and read these words:
Dear Anne,
I just want you to know that you are already “completely acceptable” to me.
Love,
Jesus.
All the Best!
