A Desire to Rescue and Save | 10 September

- Advertisment - LDS Bookstore Jewelry
Here’s your daily dose of what matters most! As we come to know Jesus Christ, we will naturally cultivate a desire to rescue and save those around us who are in trouble. Learn more about the power of ministering and helping others.

Scripture

And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.—Matthew 20:27-28

Quote

Consider the lost among the aged, the widowed, and the sick. There are, of course, others who need rescue. Some struggle with sin while others wander in fear or apathy or ignorance. For whatever reason, they have isolated themselves from activity in the Church. And they will almost certainly remain lost unless there awakens in us—the active members of the Church—a desire to rescue and to save.—Thomas S. Monson
