“Feeling the Spirit” means a lot of different things. The Holy Ghost can comfort us, warn us, reveal things to us, give us ideas, help us understand the scriptures—the list goes on and on.
What kind of help we get from the Spirit depends on what kind of help we need at the moment. Sometimes we need a general prompting, like “Be more patient with people.” And sometimes, like the young woman in this article, we need a very specific prompting, like “Sit on that bench.”
Sometimes the type of help we get isn’t what we expected! But we can trust that it’s exactly what we need.
