When the Savior knew His earthly ministry was coming to a close, He did
not leave a long list of administrative steps for His followers. He left
them with a simple commandment “that ye love one another; as I have
loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know
that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another” (John
13:34–35)
We all need to feel the warm hand of friendship and hear the firm
declaration of faith. May we labor side by
side with the Lord of the vineyard, giving the God and Father of us all
a helping hand with His staggering task of answering prayers, providing
comfort, drying tears, and strengthening feeble knees. If we will do
that, we will be more like the true disciples of Christ we are meant to
be.
