Obedience

The point isn't for me to do what I'm told. The point is for me to understand WHY He wants me to do the things He tells me, so He doesn't have to tell me anymore - I do the things anyway, without being told, because they are the right things to do.

Make a Difference in the World

From Russell M. Nelson's October 2010 "Prepare for the Blessings of the Temple":

"...being in the Lord's house can help us to be differenct from the world in order to make more difference in the world"

Enabling, Not Constraining

From Russell M. Nelson's October 2010 "Prepare for the Blessings of the Temple":

"Keeping a temple covenant is not constraining but enabling. It elevates us beyond limits of our own perspective and power. It is like the difference between plodding through a muddy field and soaring through the skies in a supersonic jet."

I can get a lot farther with His power assisting my power than I can on my power alone.

Protective, Not Restrictive

From Russell M. Nelson's October 2010 "Prepare for the Blessings of the Temple":

"A covenant made with God should be regarded not as restrictive but as protective. Covenants with Him protect us from danger."
