One of my favorite phrases in the sacrament prayers has always been:

“That they may always have His spirit to be with them.”

Like, this is my goal in life.

You know those people that you looked up to in your ward growing up, who just exuded kindness and love no matter what?

Those people you meet now who seem so genuine and sincere in all they do?

I think I’ve discovered the secret to what makes these people so awesome.

Really, there is a big connection that I’ve made:

They all attend the temple on a regular basis.

And I say “regular basis” because I have lived both near and far from temples, and these individuals all worship there “regularly”, whatever that means to them.

Try it out— talk to that person that just magnifies the Spirit in all they do, and bring up their thoughts on the temple.

Because I think they real key to always having the Spirit with us is to always be keeping our covenants.

And to keep them, we have to know them and ponder on them regularly.

King Abimelech noticed this quality about Abraham, someone who was very familiar with covenants:

“God is with thee in all that thou doest”. (Genesis 21:22)

The Spirit is with those who draw priesthood power into their lives by keeping powerful and eternal covenants with God.

What have you covenanted to do?

Those actions will keep the Spirit pouring into your life, in all that you do.

Happy Studying!
