Temple Handkerchief

When I was in Young Women's our Young women presidency gave us each a handkerchief with this poem in a card. The card was title I'm Going There Someday

This handkerchief was made with love
especially for you by __________________ (mine was made by Sister Gloria Dockstader

We want to give you this handkerchief
To remind you we are always concerned
About to who and where you will be married
And how well this principle you have learned,

Have you truly made a commitment
To follow our Father's plan?
That you may kneel in His house
Someday in marriage to a worthy man.

Nothing will bring you greater joy,
When you come to your wedding day,
But to know you kept yourself clean
And pure in a very special way.

Will you save and cherish this handkerchief
Thru the next few years of your life?
To remind you of our Father's plan
To be eternally husband and wife.

And when that beautiful day arrives,
And you've pledged your love so true,
Will you take this lovely handkerchief
To that holy place with you?

Love,

Questions to ask yourself?

1. Do I study and ponder the scriptures in an effort to know the will of God and understand His commandments regarding His children?

2. Do I follow the counsel of God's living prophet, or do I merely select those things with which I agree, disregarding the others?

3. Do I seek the advice and counsel of my bishop and stake president on matters of concern to me and my family?

4. Am I earnestly striving to discipline myself, placing my physical appetites under the subjection of my will?

5. Am I making every effort to repent of past or present wrongdoings and correct them by doing right?

6. Do I have an attitude of faith in God even though I experience trials, adversity, and affliction? And do I bear my burden without a complaining spirit?
