Good Deeds Done Daily!

"Go about doing good" is one of my favorite quotes. It has helped me in the past to think of others before thinking of myself. This quote has taught me to do whatever will bring others closer to their goals.
 I watched a video the other day which is called "True Christianity." It showed how two older men who still love to ride their Harley Davidson's around. While riding they decided to do something a little different than they had in the past rides. They rode on their yearly trip around the state and just performed different services to people along the way. This brings another favorite quote to mind "lift where you stand" which means that we can all "go about doing good" where ever we are at the time. To go about doing good we don't necessarily need to go looking for it, because God will place those acts of service in our paths for the most part.

 I am sure that God would love for us to go seeking them on our own, however he will create opportunity's where we are. Specifically over the last two years I have seen this to be true! I have seen God place us in the path of those who needed an uplifting word or even just a smile.
 God has made us who we are for a reason, he has given us all gifts, and he will put those who need our gifts on our path so he can help them through us. I have seen many times where the skill set of one will perfectly help the lack in another's skill set. We all can help as the 4th of July is right around the corner.

There will be many people who are over skilled in some areas and not so skilled in the other areas, we can use our strong areas to help those who are not having a great 4th of July. We can help brighten their day as we all celebrate the foundation of America! We are so blessed to live in the land of liberty and the home of the brave! So let us be brave and reach out to others this weekend! We would love to hear about your act of service. Please private message Elder Colby Holt on Facebook with your story and see it in the next week or two's blog! You can also leave a comment on our Facebook page, "Called to Serve" telling us of your experience and we will include it in!
