We have a responsibility to look out for one another, to help each other, to lift each others burdens. We are not here to judge one another, but to love our neighbors. That doesn't mean just the ones who literally live next door! Our neighbor is all those around us.
"When ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God." (Mosiah 2:17) Let us each step up and serve one another. Besides, serving someone else helps us look beyond ourselves - it just plain feels good!
What can you do to serve someone this week? What can you do as a family? Cookies on a doorstep? Shoveling a walkway? Reading a book together? Taking a walk, or just chatting over the fence? How about some homemade bread? That one seems to be my cup of tea lately! Share some of your ideas that you can do as an individual or a family to serve and lift someone else up. I'd love to hear and get some more ideas!
