"And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom; that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God."
Mosiah 2:17
This is a pretty well-known verse from the Book of Mormon, so maybe we've heard it enough that we gloss over it a little, but it bears thinking about. God wants us to serve him *by* doing good to other people. He's not in it for himself, but for us. As Christ so clearly showed in his atonement, this whole life is about saving us... about teaching us to be the kind of people that can live in heaven / Zion / a perfect society. Today, let's listen and learn, and do all the good we can.
