“Latter-day Saints, as with other followers of Jesus Christ, are always looking for ways to help, to lift, and to love others… They truly seek to live the first and second great commandments. When we love God with all our hearts, He turns our hearts to the well-being of others in a beautiful, virtuous cycle. Giving help to others—making a conscientious effort to care about others as much as or more than we care about ourselves—is our joy. Living that second great commandment is the key to becoming a true disciple of Jesus Christ.”
President Russell M. Nelson
