Honor the principle of the Word of Wisdom, and you will receive the promised blessings. "All saints," the revelation promises, "who remember to keep and to do these savings, walking in obedience to the commandments," are promised that they "shall receive health in their navel ... marrow to their bones" and "shall run and not be weary, and shall walk and not faint." The Word of Wisdom does not promise you perfect health, but it teaches how to keep the body you were born with in the best condition and your mind alert to delicate spiritual promptings. And then there is a greater blessing promised in the Word of Wisdom. Those who obey it are promised that they "shall find wisdom and great treasures of knowledge, even hidden treasures." This is the personal revelation through which you can detect invisible crocodiles or hidden mines or other dangers. Surely the Word of Wisdom was given so that you may keep the delicate, sensitive, spiritual part of your nature on proper alert. Learn to listen to your feelings. You will be guided and warned and taught and blessed.
