D&C 108:7-8 -- On Blessings All Around

"Therefore, strengthen your brethren in all your conversation, in all your prayers, in all your exhortations, and in all your doings.
And behold, and lo, I am with you to bless you and deliver you forever. Amen."
Doctrine and Covenants 108:7-8


Two great ideas here... strengthening the people around us in all of our doings, and God's motivation to bless and deliver us forever.  Both infinitely positive things.

Today, I'm wondering if we could just focus on that... strengthening and supporting the people around us.  I think if we remember that as a goal today that it will make a difference in how we approach the day and in how we act and what we can accomplish.

It's also good to remember that God is always on our side, trying to lift and help *us* as we draw near to him and work to listen and learn.

If we're on everyone's side and on God's side, and he is on our side, then "who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31). :)
