Christlike Love

So February is a month of Love. This February I wanted to focus on Christlike love.
"Love is what inspired our Heavenly Father to create our spirits; it is what led our Savior to the Garden of Gethsemane to make Himself a ransom for our sins. Love is the grand motive of the plan of salvation; it is the source of happiness, the ever-renewing spring of healing, the precious fountain of hope. As we extend our hands and hearts toward others in Christlike love, something wonderful happens to us. Our own spirits become healed, more refined, and stronger. We become happier, more peaceful, and more receptive to the whisperings of the Holy Spirit."
President Dieter F. Uchtdorf
So in hopes that I can share this Christlike love with those around me this month, I made a goal to do at least one act of service each day. Not only to spread the love of the Lord, but also so that I might be more receptive to the Spirit. Here's to a month of Love- True Christlike Love.
