Temple Marriage (week 4)

This week the reading was on temple marriage and it's importance.

From the reading “The Fullness of the Priesthood” by President Joseph Fielding Smith, “I do not care what office you hold in the Church - - you may be an apostle, you may be a patriarch, a high priest, or anything else -- but you cannot receive the fullness of the priesthood and the fullness of eternal reward unless you receive the ordinances of the house of the Lord; and when you receive these ordinances, the door is then open so you can obtain all the blessings which any man can gain.”

A question was asked in a talk by Elder David A. Bednar “Marriage Is Essential to His Eternal Plan" - In my own life, am I striving to become a better husband or a wife, or preparing to be a husband or a wife, by understanding and applying these basic principles? 

To answer that question; I try everyday to live my life so that one day I can be sealed for time and all eternity with a man the has also lived up to these principles. I believe for me marrige will not happen in this life for me but in Heaven if I live worthily Heavenly Father will grant me the same blessings as everyone else.
