began to feel it start again--and it stayed. I felt it more powerfully and more strong and more duradera then I remember ever before. Doctrine + Covenants 85:6 (I believe) mentions that ofttimes the spirit maketh my bones to quake. My entire body was shaking-for half an hour. While I had it, I felt that Elder Steel was feeling rather distant from me. I talked to Hermano Price about it, and he gave me some good help and advice. I don't know why I felt it that strongly at that time-but the Lord knows all things. Tonight, as well, during a model of principle 2.7-It didn't come as strong, but I felt an absolute clarity and understanding of various doctrines of keeping the commandments. I don't exactly know why- but I think it haas to do with Elder Scott's blessing. I have been trying to be as obedient as I can to all the rules. I felt a prompting to do that. So I have. Also - my relationship with Elder Steel has been one of the most unusual relationships I have ever had. It's good one day and bad the next. During the TRC today, it was going very well-but I don't know. I believe that he's misunderstood me on several occasions. Last night I told him that other people's opinions of me shouldn't and don't matter- The important thing is to do the will of the Lord--What I feel to be right. He thought I was saying that what he says doesn't matter. That I refuse to listen to him, and that I basically told him to go to heck. I don't know how he came up with that--But I hope we can end our time in the MTC having a great love and friendship for each other. The Gospel IS TRUE!
