My husband and I just bought a new house. Our first house together it is just so wonderful. lol not the house but the time with my husband. Our house needs work well it is a fixer upper as he would say.
But any who I am getting off the subject. My husband told me about "house dedication". I had no clue what he was talking about. He let me know that it is just a prayer that keeps bad spirits out and the love in.
I let him know that that sounded just great. I never knew that the LDS church did that sort of stuff. Man do I have a lot to learn =).
Well I called the missionaries to ask if they would do that for us. They of course said yes. They came over and taught me a lesson and afterword they took out a small white book to make sure they were doing it right. Then we all went to our knees and they started to pray. It was just wonderful to know that now our house is protected in some way. It just keeps getting better and better. I have almost a full year before my husband and I can become sealed.It is sad but I understand why they want you to wait a year. I believe it is because you can take that time to try and learn as much as you can about the gospel and the church. That way you wont be so stunned or surprised with what you see in there.
But of course that is just a guess I have not gone to the temple Yet =)
Key word "YET"
I feel so great about this church and the gospel I know it is to be true.
I asked god and he answered me with a wonderful warm feeling.

Lets see were to start. I met my soon to be husband(STBH) not knowing he was LDS. And we dated for a while and one day he told me that he was thinking of becoming Mormon. Oh man I had a fit. All I knew of them was that it was some sort of cult. well my STBH prayed for me. Well he asked God why did God have him fall in love with me if I was never to become a member. And he prayed that if I was the women for him, that, to please let me see the light and give the gospel a chance. Because by that time I let my STBH know that I would NEVER become a member. I would support him and come to church with him but I would never become one. At that time I did not want to give up drinking. I wasn't an alcoholic but I did like to drink when I went out. And if I became a member I wouldn't be able to have a drink if I wanted to.

Let me just say my STBH did not let me know he did this. Well that coming Sunday I heard a voice telling me that I had to go to church. So I got ready to go and I was leaving to go to the Methodist church and all of a sudden the voice told me that I had to go to the LDS church. Well I was flabergasted but I have always been very religious and I always try to listen to voices that I thought were just my conscious but now realizing that it was in fact the holy spirit. I go on the internet and try to find a nearby church. I called the number and Sister Clark answered the phone. I said " Please I would like to have some missionaries come by my house to teach me a lesson." She sounded so pleased and happy. And said "of course" She then took my information. And asked if I was going to come to the service. The service was so great I know that god had me go that specific day so I would see how much of a family this church was. It was right after the youth came back from a Treck. And they all came up and gave there testimonies. It was so beautiful I cried most of the time. I stayed afterword for the  two classes. And it just seemed like everything was clicking and made sense. After all three services were done I wanted to have a lesson right there, I just couldn't wait. I just felt the spirit and I felt so wonderful and it just felt right.
And I did not let my STBH know right away what happened. I never wanted for him to think that I became interested in the church because of him. I did this for me =). And I never thought that he would believe me when I told him about the voice. but eventually I couldn't keep it for a secret for long. And I was surprised when he told me that he prayed for a sign from god that if I was the right women for him to please let me see the light.
I know that this church is true. And I thank god everyday for choosing me for this lovely man that now I can call my husband. And eventually we will be together for all eternity.Hope you all have a wonderful day and thank you for reading my little true story that happened with me and the holy ghost.
