On the treadmill late at night. I spent the morning packing and cleaning my friends house. She's the one whose daughter was just diagnosed with diabetes; and her parents are going overseas to serve a mission (left today) and so they are moving into their house. Awful timing, huh! So, a wonderful, organized, phenomenal woman mobilized a ward ARMY of to pack, clean, load, unload, clean, unpack, etc. for this sweet sister who is going through too much in such a short time. It was amazing to be part of such an army for good - an army of service. It was like experiencing a New Era story firsthand! Of course, it was exhausting as well. But I look back on it as a really wonderful opportunity. It's not very often that I get to witness the amazing good that sweet people who are willing to serve with love can do. |
