"That they may always have his Spirit to be with them..."

I hear the sacrament prayers every week. Both prayers contain the sentence, "that they may always have his Spirit to be with them" and yet it took my cousin's baptism on Saturday for me to remember the promise God made with me when I got baptized and then confirmed.

Sometimes I freak out because I feel like I don't have His Spirit with me and I'm going to make a very wrong decision without His Spirit.

Saturday I realized I really just need to calm down and trust in the Lord.

As long as I am truly striving to follow the Lord with all my mind, might, heart, and strength, His Spirit will be with me just like He promised. I need to trust Him.

:D I love it when I realize these things I knew all along, but just kept confusing myself about.
