Vineyard BYU devotional


This is what I heard as I ran today through the Donna Olympia Vineyard of the Folonari family: 

[The Holy Ghost] quickens all the intellectual faculties, increases, enlarges, expands and purifies all the natural passions and affections; and adapts them, by the gift of wisdom, to their lawful use. It inspires, develops, cultivates and matures all the fine-toned sympathies, joys, tastes, kindred feelings and affections of our nature. It inspires virtue, kindness, goodness, tenderness, gentleness and charity.

It develops beauty of person, form and features. It tends to health, vigor, animation and social feeling.

It develops and invigorates all the faculties of the physical and intellectual man. It strengthens, invigorates, and gives tone to the nerves. In short, it is, as it were, marrow to the bone, joy to the heart, light to the eyes, music to the ears, and life to the whole being.

         ~Yoshihiko Kikuchi quoting Parley P. Pratt

The Holy Ghost is so important in my life. It is my link to God and his love.
