As I was preparing to make a cross country move I asked a church leader what I should do as I moved on. He replied to me that I should seek the spirit. Seek the spirit in everything that you do, he counseled.
I have reflected on that counsel a lot over the last year. There is a hymn that reads: Let the holy spirit guide, Let him teach us what is true. He will testify of Christ; Light our minds with heavens view.
The spirit will guide those who seek him. The Savior taught that the spirit will guide us to him and he will bring us into the presence of the father, to receive celestial glory.
Right there is a road map for us to follow. As we seek the spirit we actively are doing things that qualify us to. Have the spirit with us always. Some of those things are: reading your scriptures, praying, temple attendance and family home evenings. Complete obedience brings us to Jesus Christ. He promised by his atonement to be our advocate with the father!
This gives me hope! A hope that I can make it back home. Hope that someone always cares about me. Hope for a new and much brighter tomorrow.
It is through doing those little things that brings us closer to the spirit. They allow us to recognize the spirit working inside us. The little things provide a savings account into the big things!
