Inspirational Thought

"The Lord Inspires Those Who Serve
By President Dallin H. OaksThe Lord blesses and inspires those who willingly serve His children. As we follow the example of Jesus Christ, we open our hearts to receive divine guidance, strength, and understanding. Service is more than an act of kindness; it is an expression of our love for God and our commitment to live the gospel.When we serve with faith and humility, the Holy Ghost can direct our thoughts, help us recognize the needs of others, and provide the wisdom necessary to accomplish the Lord’s work. Often, inspiration comes as we are actively engaged in serving rather than waiting for perfect circumstances.Throughout the restored gospel, we learn that the Lord qualifies those whom He calls. He strengthens ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things as they trust in Him. Whether serving in our families, Church callings, communities, or among friends, we can feel the Savior’s love and receive personal revelation to guide our efforts.As disciples of Jesus Christ, may we continue to serve with willing hearts, knowing that the Lord walks beside us. Through faithful service, we not only bless the lives of others but also draw closer to Heavenly Father and become more like His Son. The Lord truly inspires those who serve.
