Fruit of your labors

 "Having the Holy Ghost brings forth certain fruits. . .
 The most important thing in our lives is the Spirit. I have always felt that. We must remain open and sensitive to the promptings of the Holy Ghost in all aspects of our lives"

Ezra Taft Benson

What do you seek?  What are your fruits?
