Who's on the Lord's side??

Good week. C. had her baptismal interview, and shes gonna be baptized Saturday. We also had the re-dedication of the Mexico City temple this week. Presidente Eyring dedicated the temple and he and Elder Holland talked about the importance of sacrifice and dedication. 

Elder Holland shared a story from the history of the church about the building of the Salt lake temple. The saints had lost 2 temples and had lost the land of 2 others in their journey westward, they had sacrificed literally everything to build temples in Kirkland, and Nauvoo. They had walked, and suffered, and bled, and died on the American prairie (not gonna lie I don't have any idea how to spell prairie) and at last got to a place in the middle of nowhere and their prophet immediately tells them to get to work building ANOTHER TEMPLE.... Elder Holland said that at that point many of the saints began to doubt and wonder if a temple was really that important, there were some saints that went so far as to challenge President Young and ask him "and are we gonna be able to finish this temple before they kick us out again?" To which Brigham Young answered "I don't know and I don't care. I don't care if the temple is completed, the thing that I worry about is if I am where the Lord wants me to be and am doing what He wants me to be doing. And I am sure that the Lord wants this temple built." 

'And that really is what matters. If we are where we should be and doing what we should be, the outcome really doesn't mean anything, We did our part and we have made our covenants and we can trust that the Lord will fulfill His promises in His time and in His way.
