Our Dear Friend, the Holy Ghost

I loved this quote, and the whole article is wonderful. The author's homey tone reminds me of C.S. Lewis. I love this church!

"Imagine a dear friend who, whenever he comes to visit, helps you sort out your house. He does not condemn or cajole you. He washes a few dishes. He bakes a few cookies. He sorts the laundry. He never visits without leaving the place better for his visiting. He leaves us feeling hopeful and peaceful.

Thus it is with the Holy Ghost. Whenever He visits us, He burns out a few imperfections, sets our thinking in order, and refines our feelings. On His best days---those when we give Him free reign---He fills us with the greatest of heavenly gifts: charity!"
