I look up to Missionaries so much..I mean, each and everyone of them are such great examples. It seriously makes my entire day seeing them at the store on Mondays, riding their bikes, walking around town, and also seeing the sister missionaries at the temple..I absolutly LOVE it!
I want to serve my mission, I have a DESIRE to serve my mission. In the LDS religion, girls don't need to serve their mission, we have a choice..whether or not we want to. But in the Tongan culture, if we are proposed to before we are of age to go on our mission..then we need to get MARRIED!..hahaha like my Grandpa Vaikalafi always says to me "Pulotu, always remember..get marry your first oppurtunity, if not..then serve the Lord".
I have a burning testimony in my heart of the truthfulness of this amazing gospel, which makes me yearn to share it with others. Missionaries to me are the best people on this earth..(after my mom and dad..of course!) lol what an amazing work they do, bringing our lost brothers and sisters back into our Father in heavens arms..that to me is the most powerful work here on earth..
* I want to be a missionary now!(: haha.. ( I love this song) hahaa..
Temple marriage!! what girl wouldn't want to get married in the most beautifulest place on this EARTH!? I cannot express how important temple marriage is to me..thinking about it gets me really emotional. It kills me to see this world putting temple marriage off to the side by, having a civil marriage...and later on getting sealed..dont get me wrong! thats good too..but why not do it the right way the first time?..why play around with such an amazing gift?.
I was once told, to think of my dad..and all the love I have for him ( and I have alot of love for my dad) lol..and then think of my wedding day, and if he wasnt there..now take that and think of a civil marriage, our father in heaven loves us just as much as our earthly father loves us..and more, and how he feels about you not getting married in his house..where he can be present. I'm sure it hurts :'(.
"We as girls, are princess',our Father is our King..and his temple is our castle" so why settle for less when each and everyone of us girls deserve the BEST!!. I know that if you set your mind and heart on what you really want, and strive to work hard at it, and not let temptation get control of you..you will be greatly rewarded.
I often wake up at 5:00am on Saturdays, just to observe my parents, and my married siblings and their spouses, get ready to go to the temple. I watch with great curiosity, and think.. why do they take "temple bags", and what do they do in there. These questions in my mind make me wonder..and make me even more excited for when it is my turn to go, to get up at 5:00am, and get ready along with my family members. Im not saying that im a perfect little angel, who is just flawless...NO! this is obviously one of my MAIN goals in life..meaning, im WORKING at it..its a working process lol.
"There is NO MAN, on this earth that can break the bond between my Heavenly Father and I..and keep me from getting married in the temple"..I can sit here and type all the characteristics I want in my future husband...but to be completely honest, I need to become worthy myself, to be sealed to someone who's right for me. I dislike when girls sit there and want, want, want..all these traits in a man..but dont stop to think about changing themselves to be worthy enough to have a man like that. So, I'm working on myself..and striving to be the best I can..and hopefully get a man who is worthy enough to take me to the temple.
I love my Father in Heaven, and I thank him for the gift of ETERNAL marriage, and such beautiful temples around this world..I will prepare myself for this great blessing, and hopefully someday celebrate my wedding with the ones I love and care for..including my Heavenly father.
*Never settle for less, when you deserve the BEST!(;
