How Great the Love

It is such a blessing to serve at the Mesa Temple Visitors' Center. We are always having different things going on here that really help us to feel the spirit.
Right now the Visitors' Center has a new art exhibit that was just put up. The exhibition is entitle

 How GREAT the LOVE. 

The fine art comes from an LDS artist Annie Henrie, multiple other local Arizona artists, and a few Carl Bloch etchings as well. It is simply beautiful.

This exhibit really allows us all to take a moment and think about our Savior's love for us. He knows us and loves us. He has given his life that we may be able to return to him. I know that it is such a blessing to be able to turn to him in all things and find peace.

Here are a few of the pieces that are up at the Visitors' Center right now!

One Shepherd by Howard Lyon
"And verily I say unto you, that ye are they of whom I said: Other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd."

How Great the Love by Annie Henrie
Fragmented Angels by Annie Henrie
This is one of my favorites. It shows how there are always angles around us, even if at first we can not see them they are there. The world is crazy and  at times we must take a step back to see the beauty, the blessings, and ultimately the angels around us.

Endless Days by Annie Henrie
"The family is ordained of God"
 Family relationships do not just end on this earthly life, they can and will last for all eternity.

Lehi discovers the Liahona by Morgen Thruston
The Prayer by Annie Henrie
We can and will find out truth through simple and meaningful prayer. I know that it is the only way to truly know our purpose here on this earth and I am so thankful for the Love of Christ and the ability to pray!

Come to the Mesa Temple Visitors' Center (525 E Main St. Mesa AZ) and see ALL the artwork! This is only a small glimpse into a truly breathtaking exhibit that truly helps us feel the Love of Christ.
