The Provo Tabernacle

I drove past the Provo Tabernacle the other day - it's on its way to becoming the Provo Temple - but it actually looks horrible... just a dark empty shell on a vacant lot surrounded by construction.

It gave me hope... because I know what the plan is, I know what it's going to be. Sometimes, when I look at myself, I see the same thing - a Bonnie under construction - one that's not looking so great at the moment.  But the truth is, there's a plan for me too.  I am also in the process of becoming something.

The fire was a tragedy - a beautiful building gone.  

But no - it's going to be restored!  And even better, it's going to become a beautiful Temple.

I'm thankful for the ways that Heavenly Father chooses to teach us about the atonement.
