“My Special Place,” Friend, June 2016, 36
My Special Place
There is a place I like to go
To listen for the Spirit.
It isn’t very far away.
In fact, I’m always near it.
My scriptures are quite close at hand,
My picture of the temple,
My journal where I write my thoughts—
It couldn’t be more simple.
I hum a song. I kneel to pray.
A quiet and peaceful feeling
Comes to my heart and lets me know
The Holy Ghost is speaking.
