Ministering by the Spirit invites the Savior’s healing into our lives and the lives of those we minister to. …

Ministering is truly loving and caring for others as the Savior would. It is a way of being; it is the way of our Savior, Jesus Christ. …

We are not called to or released from ministering. It is part of fulfilling the covenants we made at baptism and in the temple. …

We’ve been sent here to learn to love God and each other as the Savior did—to love in sacrificial and transformational ways, ways that will bring our greatest happiness. …

Choosing to minister isn’t always convenient or comfortable. It requires sacrifice, faith, vulnerability, and trusting things will work out as we let God prevail. …

As we minister in faith, we do not go alone. The Lord will be with us. …

If you want to feel grounded, gain a sense of divine belonging, and make a real difference in the world, I invite you to follow the Savior and minister in His name. …

The Savior did not limit His ministering to His family and close associations. He ministered to all and invites us to do the same. …

I believe our Father in Heaven wants you to be happy. He loves you. His work, including ministering, is designed to bring you and me the greatest joy we can experience.

I testify that ministering not only “brings forth the blessings of heaven,” it is the way of heaven.
