“Temple work … gives
a wonderful opportunity for keeping alive our spiritual knowledge and strength.
… The mighty perspective of eternity is unraveled before us in the holy
temples; we see time from its infinite beginning to its endless end; and the
drama of eternal life is unfolded before us. Then I see more clearly my place
amidst the things of the universe, my place among the purposes of God; I am
better able to place myself where I belong, and I am better able to value and
to weigh, to separate and to organize the common, ordinary duties of my life so
that the little things shall not oppress me or take away my vision of the
greater things that God has given us.”
– Elder John A. Widtsoe, Conference
Report, Apr. 1922, pp. 97–98.
