I think sometimes we look at charity as the ultimate characteristic of perfection.
Perhaps we believe that if we haven’t perfected charity in this life, we have wasted our time here. Maybe we need to have a better understanding of charity. It isn’t as daunting as what some of us might think. Yes, charity is the love of Christ, it is perfect love, but we do not have to be perfect in order to have perfect love.
Have you ever had your heart softened by an example of love or kindness? If so, you were touched by an act of charity. It is a feeling in your heart to lift burdens, to ease pain, to show kindness and do what is right. It is thinking of the widow’s struggling, being a companion to the lonely or filling a need for someone. Ultimately it is being the Savior’s hands for those who need help.
I loved an example given by Elder Paul V. Johnson for The Friend Magazine. He said, “In third or fourth grade a friend and I were riding our bicycles home from school. Some older children saw us riding by and started chasing us. I was terrified! We rode as fast as we could, with the bullies on their bikes just behind. When we made it safely to my friend’s house, I promised myself that I would never be a bully. Of course, I wasn’t always perfect. But I did try to look out for classmates whom others did not treat kindly. When I stood up for these friends, I felt the Savior’s love for them and for me.”1

When he showed kindness to his friends, he felt the Savior’s love for them and for himself. How many marriages would be improved if each spouse could feel the Savior’s love for themselves and their spouse?
When I feel valued and loved by the Savior, I am happier and can feel peace. There are things I can do to ensure that I have those feelings like having meaningful prayer, consistent scripture study and by giving of my time in service to others. Feeling the Savior’s love for our dear companions isn’t always that simple.
Pray for Charity Daily
We should pray for the gift of charity daily. A common phrase touring around the world is “You can’t take it with you.” I suppose that depends on what “it” is referring to. Material things don’t come with us when we leave this mortal existence, but the many good works to which our hearts have been inclined to do, certainly do go with us. I believe that we will get to say thank you to those who have touched us by a comment or a kind act. Charitable service will never be forgotten.
Showing forth charity in a marriage relationship would bring the greatest blessings. Could we comfort instead of getting angry, could we help instead of hinder? Stress and disappointment, burdens, addictions and afflictions are part of mortal life but if we were to show more love to our spouses instead of judgment or impatience, our relationships would become sweet. Our homes would be safe havens for one another and for our children. The Spirit would be poured out upon us which would have an everlasting effect upon on families.
I loved the comment by Sister Craig from the general women’s conference last October. She quoted Sister Camilla Kimball when she said, “Never suppress a generous thought.”2 Those generous thoughts are the blooms of charity. May we ever cultivate this beautiful gift as we seek to do the Lord’s work in our own homes and in our communities.

I saw an opportunity to invest in cryptocurrency about two months ago and I took my chance. I contacted a broker who I saw videos on youtube and I invested a huge sum of money around £665,211 which was deposited using Bitcoin with hopes to gain massive returns on my investment. I kept tracking my portfolio and it was increasing daily on the website. It made me excited and confident. Fast forward to 30 Days after, which was supposed to be my payout date, I tried to make a withdrawal as I needed money to foot my bills and buy my new house, but the broker insisted that I continue to invest or will have to pay some fees to withdraw my funds. That was very disappointing to hear, because it was all going smoothly when I deposited the funds. Eventually, I paid the fees which was about £45,800. I was desperate now because according to my portfolio, I had made about £1,512,400. Now you see why I was willing to pay the fees. It turned out it was a scheme to keep asking me for more money for one thing or the other, like Taxes, miner fees and so many others. I declined, and instead I won’t pay more. They locked my account for several weeks. A month after, I saw a post on Quora about GHOST CHAMPION HACKERS which stated they were capable of getting my money recovered. With a little faith in me, I contacted them immediately, and discussed my situation, and sent all the information I had. In less than a week, I was able to recoup my BTC. I praise the universe for sending them my way. I wish to recommend them to everyone out there. they are capable of recover any crypto coins Bitcoin, Usdt ,Eth, Dogecoin, now i have my funds back with there guidelines and skills you can always contact them via EMAIL : ghostchampionwizard @ gmail.com Telegram : https://t.me/WizardGhosthacker
