Unreasonable

I was thinking today during church about how when I was a teen I would expect the spirit to be somewhere just because I went to somewhere that people usually feel the spirit.  Like church, the temple, girls camp, etc... I found that it wasn't always there when I expected it to be.  I've learned since then that it is me... it's me that invites the spirit in to wherever I am.  Places like the church and the temple are really good catalysts for learning and for feeling the spirit, but I have to do more than sit in one of those places and say, "Here I am... where's the Spirit?"  It really struck me because watching each teenager go to the podium and bear their testimony... I wanted them to understand what it took me 20 years to learn.  Does that mean that I'm going to be called to be with the youth?  Hmmm.
