"Someone has said that when we want to talk to the Lord, we
pray, and when he wants to talk to us, it is through the scriptures: 'For it is
my voice which speaketh them unto you; for they are given by my Spirit unto you,
and by my power you can read them one to another' (D&C 18:35)." —

"How can we provide a climate in
our lives to foster the presence of the Holy Ghost, that our lives may
be more joyful? Just as a reservoir stores water to bring relief and
replenish the thirsty land, so we can store experiences, knowledge, and
desires to replenish and fortify our spiritual needs. Four ways may be
helpful in developing reservoirs of righteousness and spiritual
self-reliance. We prepare by—
"1. Developing a cheerful disposition wherein the Spirit can dwell.
"2. Learning the Savior's will for us, that we may know our divine potential.
"3. Understanding and accepting his atoning sacrifice and repenting of our sins.
4. Keeping his commandments and
having a firm determination to serve him." - Barbara W. Winder,
"Finding Joy in Life," Ensign (CR), November 1987, p. 95
