Service is an act of love, by serving others we are doing
Heavenly Father’s work on earth. There are many people in this world that need our help,
we need not go very far to find them, this acts of service need not be
elaborate nor of great magnitude, simple acts of kindness will help us become
more like Christ. We are Gods hand and through our service we answer prayers.
We must be in tune with the spirit to find and know whom to help. If we engage
in this activity we will discover great joy, and richness of life. I want to
strive to serve others, until service becomes part of my nature.
