There is a Brightness

There is a  brightness
That can be seen
A halo to witness
One is now clean

"I went to Las Vegas to baptize and confirm that widow. And my wife and I were her companions when she first went to the temple. In all those sacred moments of covenants, there seemed to me to be a brightness about her, just as I felt when I looked down with love on my first great-grandchild. "

I thought it interesting that the thing that brought light into this widow's heart was seeing the sister missionaries standing at her door and she could almost see halos around them. Then Eyring says the same thing about the widow.  Maybe this is circular? Those with light recognize light and obtain more light looking toward the more perfect day.
