If you've ever wondered "why" we have been asked to go to the temple here is a list of the blessings of temple attendance that I have collected through the years.
- feel the spirit often
- see God's hand in the details of your life
- feel peace
- feel God's power in the temple
- be armed with His power when you leave the temple
- learn the truths, light, and knowledge of the gospel when you attend the temple
- learn the true doctrine of Christ in the temple
- receive a knowledge that we are part of a great cause
- gain an understanding of our responsibilities for others beyond the veil
- helps us remember our covenants [baptismal covenants involve obedience and service; other covenants involve obedience, sacrifice, the submission to gospel laws, purity, and the promise to serve as best as we can]
- you can receive the fullness of the Holy Ghost
- have a clear mind
- blessed in all aspects of your life, including increased family blessings
- both men and women can learn to draw upon the Lord's priesthood power
- the Lord will provide miracles
- the assistance to mend troubled, broken, or anxious hearts
- the ability to no longer feel alone
- increased love for others, especially your family members living and dead
- the power to discern between right and wrong
- a greater influence of the Holy Ghost to feel direction in life
- increased ability to repent
- protection from temptation
- helps to refine (improve) and sanctify (purify) your heart
- deep and abiding conversion to the Savior through increased faith in Him
- a better understanding of the Atonement of Jesus Christ
