I'll Do What Is Right

How important is it to be nice? Do I need to be nice to everybody? I mean, some people I know can be a huge pain when they feel like it!

Hmm. To start to answer this, I'll steal a quote from someone.
Jesus Christ said, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends” (John 15:13). This doesn't mean we have to die to show our love for our friends. We lay down our lives every time we put someone else's needs before our own. (And the “friends” mentioned in the scripture above can be understood to be everyone we meet, since Jesus also commanded us to “love one another.”)                       -"Service To Others"
Jesus doesn't want us to leave anyone out of our circle of friends. And the way we show that we are sincere friends is by the things that we do for them. Take, for example, these delicous-looking breakfast burritos! (Never mind the dirty dishes.) When Elder Hunter made these (one for me!) it was sincere service for me.


Yum! Anyway.
