Cease to be idle; cease to be unclean; cease to find fault one with another.......And above all things clothe yourselves with the bond of charity, as with a mantle, which is the bond of perfectness and peace. ---Doctrine and Covenants 88;124-25
Imagine how our own families, let alone the world, would change If we vowed to keep faith with one another, strengthen one another, look for and accentuate the virtues in one another, and speak graciously concerning one another. Imagine the cumulative effect if we treated each other with respect and acceptance, if we willingly provided support. Such interactions practiced on a small scale would surely have a rippling effect throughout our homes and communities and, eventually, society at large. The way I see it the world is in great need at this time for us to step up and take charge.
Today will never come again. "Have I done any good in the world today? Have I helped anyone in need? Due to the fact I am tending two grandsons this week......being sure they are on schedule, eating, doing chores etc. and letting three dogs in and letting three dogs out and letting three dogs in......etc. each day I feel I am doing some good. Could I do more? Yes, I am sure we can all do more........
