There is a very lengthy list of things that he counseled the members to work on, which are all things that we can improve and work on today! I chose 3 attributes that he shared that I want to improve on. They are:
Love One Another
This is one of Christ’s great commandments – to love God and
to love your neighbor. I want to work on
loving those around me by seeing them as children of God – my brothers and
sisters. I can do this at work, church,
and at home by looking for ways to serve those around me and express my love
for them in simple, meaningful ways. I
know that even a smile, or a friendly “hello” can make a difference and life
someone’s day.
Comfort & Edify One
Another
This one goes along with love one another, but I want to
work on this as well. I want to look for
ways to edify others and one thing I want to do is to just share simple,
conversational testimony. Sharing my
blessings with others, acknowledging God’s hand in my life. I can also be attentive and give comfort or
encouragement to others. I can do this
by sharing my testimony and telling of all the blessings I receive from God
each day, which will help them think of their own many blessings and feel
better.
Pray Without Ceasing
It’s easy for me to get into a prayer routine, but the Bible
encourages us to pray always. To pray
without ceasing. I can and should pray
about anything and everything. So this
is something I will work on – I want to pray about my daily situations, give
thanks for daily blessings, and just have my mind and heart centered on Jesus
Christ.
I know that I can improve on these things as I turn to the Lord for help. I know that I will be blessed for my efforts as I strive to follow the counsels of His servants.
