Respect and Reverence
I remember a talk that President Boyd K. Packer gave in conference almost 20 years ago entitled "Reverence Invites Revelation." (Reverence Invites Revelation," Ensign, Nov. 1991, 21-23.) That phrase has remained in my heart all these years. It reminds me that we must create in our hearts, our homes, and our meetings places of reverence that will invite the Spirit to comfort, guide, teach, and testify. Because when the Spirit testifies to each of us that God is our Father and Jesus Christ is our Savior, it is that revelation that will invite true reverence born of love and profound respect.
