Jesus and the Holy Ghost

 3 Nephi 19: 22 Father, thou hast given them the Holy Ghost because they believe in ame; and thou seest that they believe in me because thou hearest them, and they pray unto me; and they pray unto me because I am with them.


This reminds me of the sacramental prayers and my baptismal covenants...how if I remember Him, His spirit will be with me. This scripture is talking about people who were receiving the gift of the HG; but I think the principles apply to me, someone who's been confirmed and just wants the Spirit as a companion.

So, believing in Christ is one way that I can get the HG to be with me. How do I show that I believe, like these people showed they believe? This is how I show I believe:

  • wanting to believe
  • reading my scriptures each day
  • praying for forgiveness and making changes to myself
  • praying in general; talking to God and involving Him 
  • trying to trust in Heavenly Father and Jesus
  • Taking deep breaths so that I can be more patient and more kind
