Just wanted to share a great talk, well, a quote from it. Here is the talk. This is beautiful and motivational. I want to be better. I want to be nicer. I want to do more. I want to be like the Savior. I have been the recipient of so much love and care and kindness and have felt so unworthy and yet so thankful. so greatful!!
Enjoy every word!!!
True Love Requires Action
True love requires action. We can speak of love all day long—we can write notes or poems that proclaim it, sing songs that praise it, and preach sermons that encourage it—but until we manifest that love in action, our words are nothing but “sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.” 11
Christ did not just speak about love; He showed it each day of His life. He did not remove Himself from the crowd. Being amidst the people, Jesus reached out to the one. He rescued the lost. He didn’t just teach a class about reaching out in love and then delegate the actual work to others. He not only taught but also showed us how to “succor the weak, lift up the hands which hang down, and strengthen the feeble knees.” 12
Christ knows how to minister to others perfectly. When the Savior stretches out His hands, those He touches are uplifted and become greater, stronger, and better people as a result.
If we are His hands, should we not do the same?
