There is one recorded conversation with the Savior that strikes me personally every time I hear or read it:
34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: ...
37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? ...
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. (Matthew 25:34-40)
When I serve others, I not only notice the blessings from doing what Jesus asks, but I am happier. “Your happiness will be in proportion to your charity and to your kindness and to your love of those with whom you associate here on earth.” (President George Albert Smith)*
Thank you for all you do to help your neighbors, family members and work associates.
(My thoughts from January, 2012)
