Helping Others Recognize the Whisperings of the Spirit

My thoughts on Sister Matsumori's talk "Helping Others Recognize the Whisperings of the Spirit."

I find it interesting that this talk follows "To Acquire Spiritual Guidance". So once you have acquired it, you have to help others. ~smile~

She outlines three "easy" steps.
1. Understand the Doctrine
2. Share Personal Testimony
3. Provide an Environment where the Spirit Can Be Felt

I don't think you are ever done with any of these and you are constantly doing them in some fashion. In fact in thinking about our primary, we have to do all three as all the kids are at different levels of recognizing the Spirit.

I don't want to pat myself on the back for fear of breaking my arm, but I do think that I do the first step well. I am constantly studying it and trying to figure it all out. The second one, I'm not to sure--at least to those who might need help. I think I "preach to the choir" way too often. But I'm so afraid of what might happen to my pearls if I put them forth. And the last one. OUCH! I'm not to sure how I fall there. My house if full of teens and sometimes the noise and contention fills it to the second story. I know I try but I often fall short.
