Do you view obedience as binding, not blinding? “In coming days, it will not be possible to survive spiritually without the guiding, directing, comforting, and constant influence of the Holy Ghost. …I urge you to stretch beyond your current spiritual ability to receive personal revelation, for the Lord has promised that ‘if thou shalt [seek], thou shalt receive revelation upon revelation, knowledge upon knowledge, that thou mayest know the mysteries and peaceable things—that which bringeth joy, that which bringeth life...

It’s the First Step. Isn’t that Amazing!

Last updated on: June 20, 2020 at 5:29 pm By Delisa Hargrove

My nephew Matthew chose to be baptized yesterday. He asked his 12-year-old cousin Kyla to speak about the covenant of baptism and receiving the Holy Ghost. I normally don’t leave all of the “talk-ish” parts of a talk in my posts, but I loved everything Kyla had to say and decided to share all of her wisdom and humor as she shared about covenant’s first step.

A Snare And Souls Like Birds

Last updated on: June 13, 2020 at 10:11 am By Delisa Hargrove

Roxy Kimokeo shared this beautiful imagery with me this morning. Birds and a Snare You know how I love birds? I love that they sing and seem so happy and that they can fly far away and seem to live halfway between earth and sky. Up away from the ground and all the danger and chaos, closer to the sun and moon and stars and almost to touch heaven. I think of birds a lot when I think of our... Read more

On Judging Another’s Journey

Last updated on: June 2, 2020 at 12:58 pm By Delisa Hargrove

I am a simple person. When trying to understand the complexity of things I can’t understand without experiential knowledge, simple, commonplace things in my life help to serve as a metaphor to see as much as I can from others’ perspectives, in spite of the inconsequential nature of the metaphor.
