“I’m confident it’s the intention of each member of the
Church to serve and to help those in need. At baptism we covenanted to bear one
another’s burdens, that they may be light. How many times has your heart been
touched as you have witnessed the need of another? How often have you intended
to be the one to help? And yet how often has day-to-day living interfered and
you’ve left it for others to help, feeling that ‘oh, surely someone will take
care of that need.’ We become so caught up in the busyness of our lives. Were
we to step back, however, and take a good look at what we’re doing, we may find
that we’ve immersed ourselves in the ‘thick of thin things.’ In other words,
too often we spend most of our time taking care of the things which don’t really
matter much at all in the grand scheme of things.” – President Thomas S. Monson
