This post is part of the General Conference Odyssey. This week covers the Priesthood Session of the April 2004 Conference.
This week I was noticing how simply these words from President Hinckley sum up the point of my last post:
We shall go on in this work. There will always be a need. Hunger and want and catastrophes will ever be with us. And there will always be those whose hearts have been touched by the light of the gospel who will be willing to serve and work and lift the needy of the earth.
President Hinckley is always so great at honing in on the essentials, and he does so here. What does the light of the gospel do for us? It touches our own hearts and then inspires us to lift others. It's the first and second commandment in action. I love the simplicity of that: eat the fruit, and then bear fruit by blessing others. I love God's plan!
