Yes he holds a temple reccomend. I don't even know if he was honest with the bishop in the interview. He wouldn't initiate a trip to the temple, but if I said, lets go - he would say okay. He tries to hide the smoking sometimes, but I can tell and he will admit to it. He never does it at home. It is a stress relief to him as he holds a very stressful job. rubondfan2 - I think your reply was right on and so helpful. Thank you!!

I know my husband has a problem with smoking. I am sure he has gone to the temple while he has been struggling with this. I am also sure that if I suggested we go, he would still go even if he had smoked earlier that day. I don't want him to go because I am going if he is doing wrong. What do I do? Do I just say it's between him and the lord and if he feels like he should go then let him? OR Do I just not ask him to go and plan to go by myself. I went by myself yesterday. I just wish he would decide who's side he it on. HJe gets caught up in what everyone else is doing at work and is very impulsive. We have 6 kids and it makes me very sad.

What do you do when it's that time of the month? Do you wear your garments as normal or underware or a combination?

Thank you so much! I have been wearing my garments everyday since I posted this and it just feels normal now. I have also been saying my personal prayers. I am going to go get my tithing out of my account today! I easily spend my tithing amount on things I don't really need, so I need to learn how to stop spending money as a way of escape. You all have helped me SO much--really--thank you.

Thank you so much everyone! I am in tears--your kind words have meant so much to me. Yes, I could use a break! There are many stressful factors in my life right now. We moved into my inlaws house while we waited for everything to get ready for the house we were buying and it fell through, so now we are still living here and it IS tough! Anyway, I am going to take it one step at a time and I am going to get back to the temple! It's even hard to remember the covenents I made there because it has been several years since I've been.

Hi, I am a mom of 6 who is struggling. I do everything to look good on the outside--I take my kids to church every Sunday. I fulfill my calling in the nursery. We have family home evenings, bless our food...etc. I attend Enrichment meetings, but I am failing to do other things that no one else can see. I am endowed, but haven't been able to keep myself paying tithing to be able to attend the temple. I don't wear my garments like I should because They are uncomfortable to me and I just don't feel motivated to wear them. I feel like I need a refresher course on their importance and I think I feel guilty wearing them because I am not able to enter the temple because of the tithing. It just seems like there will never be enough money to go around while paying tithing too. We struggle even without paying it. I also have been failing to have personal prayer and reading my scriptues. I feel like i need some major motivation. Thank you.
