Heart of the Matter What 100 Years of Living Have Taught Me

There's a Graham Greene novel about war in Indochina. Two men, Fowler and Pyle, I think, are working in the underground, and at one point Fowler has to kill Pyle even though he's his best friend, and he does, and he's racked up with guilt, and he says, if there was just somebody to whom I could go and say, I'm sorry, there is.

However, in coming days, it will not be possible to survive spiritually without the guiding, directing, comforting, and constant influence of the Holy Ghost. So I plead with you to increase your spiritual capacity to receive personal revelation.

Choose to do the spiritual work required to experience the whispering of the Holy Ghost. Choose also to hear the words of the Lord through scripture and through the words of the prophets.

You see how he's tying them together the way that we have. As you seek to more clearly receive direction from heaven, you will be blessed with additional power to deal with temptation, struggles, and weaknesses. I promise miracles in your marriage, family relationships, and daily work.

And I promise that your capacity to feel joy, or hope, and love, I would say, is it will increase. My beloved brothers and sisters, I plead with you to increase your capacity to receive revelation.
