Satan Tries to Keep us Away from the Temple
Carol B. Thomas/Boyd K. Packer


 
One of the biggest lessons I have learned is that Satan will try to keep us from going to the temple. During a discussion with friends once, they shared with me that whenever they attend, they don't tell anybody they are going. They just jump into their cars and go because if they don't, something is sure to happen to keep them away.
I remember reading of a warning given by the president of the Logan Temple that Satan's followers will "whisper in the ears of the people persuading them not to go to the Temple." Temple work brings so much resistance because it is the source of so much spiritual power to the Latter-day Saints.
