Section 46

13 To some it is given by the Holy Ghost to know that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that he was crucified for the sins of the world.

The Lord revealed to Joseph that all individuals are eligible to receive spiritual gifts from the Him, through the Holy Ghost.  Spiritual gifts are extremely useful and should be sought for diligently.  The Spirit will reveal to us what gifts are available to us, but we must exercise the faith to ask for them.  The gift to know Jesus (shown above) is at the top of the list that I ask for on a regular basis.  The gift to teach Jesus’ gospel is also a gift I have sought.  The Lord also gives the gift of healing, languages, administration, discernment, love for others, gratitude, faith, hope, and charity.  There are many gifts, in fact, there are as many gifts as there are God’s children and he administers them perfectly according to our needs and desires.  Many are less conspicuous and include such things as being able to cry, gentleness, appreciation for beauty, ability to listen, and empathy.
