Charity
A small act of kindness
It was a simple act. I wonder how many people even noticed? Surely if I saw it others must have too.
Brother So-and-so was saying the Sacrament prayer for the bread. Apparently, it was that kind of day for him. The words just couldn’t make their way out of his mouth correctly. He started several times. This is one of those instances that have the potential to embarrass someone. For some people, it could even drive them to obscurity. Slip away, slip away into safe, comfortable surroundings. Why bother trying?

I want to help, I really do. But seeing a need and then being able to fill that need (which is trickier than it sounds) has always eluded me.
But there is something I can do.

How about a message that shows what the Christmas season is all about? Yeah, I thought it would be nice, too.

About two seconds after she said those four words, Pintrest and Facebook lit up with memes carrying the message. But the whole talk is worth listening to, also.
The Key
The prophet said,
the great test
we learn in life
is to obey
that will bring us rest.
Who am I to argue?
I do agree
obedience
is the test
and love is the key.
