Sharing our Abundunce



"To live a pure unselfish life, one must


count nothing as one's own


in the midst of abundance."


-Buddha-


In the Book of Mormon King Benjamin gives a beautiful discourse on giving to those in need. He says, "For behold, are we not all beggars? Do we not all depend upon the same being, even God, for all the substance which we have, for both food and raiment, and for gold and for silver and for all the riches which we have of every kind...Oh then how ye ought to impart of the substance that ye have one to another". (Mosiah 4:19,21) I hope that I can always keep this in mind as we have been so very blessed. May our hearts respond to those who have greater needs than our own.
