Need for More People

This past week I have been noticing the need to include more people in
my life. The Savior devoted his life to others. He left his home and
His possessions to teach the gospel—to fulfill His Mission as the Son
of God. His disciples did likewise. We learn in Mathew chapter 4 vs
18-22 that Peter, Andrew, and James all “left their nets” to follow
the Savior. In other words, they left their work behind to follow the
Savior and share the gospel with other. While not all of us are called
to serve missions of the sort of Peter, James, and Andrew, each of us
are presented each days with choices of where or not we are going to
serve the Savior in the places we live and work, to “Lift where we
stand” as modern prophet have taught us. So I’ve decided to make a
greater drive to serve as the Savior did by being the best the can and
once in a while, to leave work, school, or homework behind to lift
where I stand.

  1. That's so true! You cannot follow the Savior in a vacuum, everything he taught involves interaction with people. That's why monks always confused me, because we must be in the world and a source of good in it to be true followers of Christ.
