Serving

It often turns out that as a mother of young children, most of the service I render... is to those small children.

Today, I had the opportunity to serve someone other than my children. A lady who I visit teach needed some help, and I was able to do it. Not only was I able to help her out today, but we were able to talk about feeling the Spirit. It lifted me.

There really is so much happiness to be found in doing (even the small things, as was my case) good for others. I'm thankful for the visiting teaching program that gives us opportunities to watch over and care for each other.

Often, I feel like I'm a sheep being taken care of, but today I got to be a little bit of a shepherd. And it was good.
