It is the chief joy of all holy beings to witness the joy and happiness of those around them.

If you are suffering from your intemperance in eating or in drinking, we that are around you, or associated with you, are affected by your infirmities. We have to suffer on account of the course you pursue, which is wrong. If it has an influence to lessen your powers of mind or body, we are affected by it.

As we lay hold upon the truth of God, its influence must affect us. It must elevate us. It must remove from us every imperfection.
