I found this profound quote this week in my studies. It helps me focus on what is most important. “You wonderful sisters render compassionate service to others for reasons that supersede desires for personal benefits. In this you emulate the Savior, who, though a king, did not seek position, nor was he concerned about whether others noticed Him. He did not bother to compete with others. His thoughts were always tuned to help others. He taught, healed, conversed with, and listened to others. He knew that greatness had little to do with outward signs of prosperity or position. He taught and lived by this doctrine. ‘He that is greatest among you shall be your servant.’” Dieter F. Utchdorf (Daughters In My Kingdom)
“The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.” William Arthur Ward. The Savior, our greatest teacher, inspires us with His selfless example of love and service.
Thank you! You wonderful sisters for your examples of selfless service-
Love, Tanya Yancey
