I read a short article by Elder Dallin H. Oaks about how to be spiritually protected. He shared some advice that wasn't anything I hadn't already been taught. Realizing that, it taught me how this church always has, and always will, teach the same doctrine. We are all following the same Jesus Christ, and all want to return to the same Heavenly Father. Therefore, we all need to follow the same teachings to make it back.
Read the scriptures, repent and partake of the sacrament, pray daily, attend the temple, do not participate in activities that drive away the Spirit.
All of those I know I've been taught about for as long as I can remember, and it's comforting to know that those are things I need to always focus on doing. I need daily study and pondering in order to stay spiritually protected. I need daily communication with Heavenly Father to know what I can do better, who I can serve to keep his spirit close to me.
