The Thick of Thin Things
by admin on Mar.14, 2010, under Religious, Service
President Thomas S. Monson says, “We become so caught up in the busyness of our lives, were we to step backward however and take a good look at what we are doing, we may find that we have immersed ourselves in the thick of thin things.”
Latter-Day Saints, or Mormons, sustain Thomas S. Monson as God’s prophet. As in Old Testament times, God continues to call prophets that serve as his messenger. The particular message that God would have his hear is to serve others! Do something small and unexpected. It can be breakfast for a spouse, picking up a piece of trash, helping someone with their groceries, etc. Just don’t get caught up in the “thick of thin things” in life! A popular LDS hymn states:
“Have I done any good in the world today, have I helped anyone in need? Have I cheered up the sad, and made someone feel glad? If not I have failed indeed. Has anyones burden been lighter today, because I was willing to share? Have the sick and the weary been helped on their way? When they needed my help was I there?
As you watch this video think about how you can avoid getting caught up in the “thick of thin things”!
