I've been thinking about a lot of things but lately, I've been thinking about the Holy Ghost or sometimes we like to call the the Holy Spirit. When I talk about the Holy Ghost I think about a small voice talking in my head. Also when I am thinking about the Holy Ghost I feel really good inside. When I talk about this I get really emotional and a lot of people do to. So one question that I get asked a lot is what is the Holy Ghost and what dose it do? Well the Holy Ghost is one of the members of the God head and he is a personage of spirit and not of flesh and bones. What does he do exactly that is a good question that people ask well he helps us differ the right and the wrong and helps us with the truth he reveals us truth that heavenly father wants us to know. When we are baptized after we get what is called the gift of the Holy Ghost and he is a constant companionship and helps us out any way we can and that we can make the right decisions in life. Ezra Taft Benson says: "Spirituality-being in tune with the spirit of the Lord-is the greatest need that we all have." What President Benson is saying is that when we are tuned in with the spirit we will have the constant companionship of the spirit. The spirit is described in the scriptures as not a loud voice, nor harsh, not a voice of thunder, neither a voice of great tumultuous, but rather still and small, of perfect mildness, as if it had been a whisper, and it can pierce the very soul and can cause the heart to burn. The spirit doesn't get our attention by shouting but by whispering into our hearts and our minds and our souls. Obedience opens the door to the constant companionship of the Holy Ghost.The Holy Ghost inspires virtue, kindness, goodness, tenderness gentleness, and charity. Doctrine and Covenants 130:22-23
22 The Father has a body
of flesh and bones as tangible as man’s; the Son also; but the Holy
Ghost has not a body of flesh and bones, but is a personage of Spirit. Were it not so, the Holy Ghost could not dwell in us.
