Ordinances are like moving

I have been a Sunday school teacher for many a year now and while teaching this new class of young great minds, I have learned some new things that I would of not learned if it had not been for this class. 

While teaching the principles of ordinances in the temple, one student pointed out that building the kingdom required help with the task of acquiring ordinances like people need help moving large furniture.

I reflected on all the moves I had been involved with and realized that I had a lot of muscle helping me and others move in and out of homes. The time and effort was always intensive. 

Reflecting now I realize that in us helping the spirits of the dead, we are helping them build a spiritual home with ordinances/furniture that they could not create or bring to pass on their own. I wonder what those spirits kingdoms look like with these new doors opened and the keys in their hands. God bless them as He has blessed me.
