Temple

"Man is; that he might have joy."

Temple

Man cannot comprehend the flawless,
While subjected to the wicked and lawless.
Mountain of the Lord houses the portal,
Leads to deity and all the immortal.

Angel Moroni's message implored!
Spires attest priesthood restored.
Those that enter are bestowed on high,
With covenants kept; progression is nigh.

Enter and learn from symbols replete,
With answers of man's private entreat.
Glorious visions pierce the frame!
Lifting patrons; each the same.

Families then by proxy sealed,
Sentence of exiles there repealed!
Fathers, mothers, children, all,
Soaring upward from the fall!

I long to stay in the House of prayer,
Commune with Father and all the heirs!
The ordinance workers and envoy,
Offer solace; transcendent joy!

Jim "The Lad" ....

We have thousands of meeting houses with chapels where we worship each Sabbath, however there only a few Temples  worldwide where we go to make covenants and do proxy work for our kindred to seal our families together back to Abraham that they and we can receive all the blessings that Heavenly Father has for us,. They are sacred not secret, any worthy member can go and are encouraged to! They are places of prayer and great joy! Thank you for reading my poem about them!........Jim

Very good the end 2020 prayer, and congrats to "the Lad". Your writing is more and more towards the "oldie English" style :)) Hope you've got a NYR to visit Abraham again?

PS 2020-12-31
Wish you a New Year be peaceful and healthy wherever you are. And "the Lad" will be a world giant? Ha ha ha

Hi Jim,

Very nice. 

I’ve always wondered if religions are reflections of the unknowable.

Reminds me of the covenant (penned by John Wesley) that we pray together at my Church of the Nazarene:
