For Love to Flourish
To be human is to love. We become our best and truest selves only when we stop focusing on ourselves and start loving others. Love gives richness and beauty to life. People who love are able to keep going forward during difficulties and experience authentic joy.
True love, real love, is always selfless and centered on others. While healthy self-esteem can be good for us, self-centeredness can be as empty as no love at all. Love always turns us outward, not inward.
Of the many types of love, romantic love is perhaps the most talked about. Countless songs, poems, and movies depict wistful, starry-eyed couples falling in love. But there’s so much more to a successful, loving relationship.
It may help to learn from those who know what it takes to build such a relationship. When couples who have been married over 50 years were asked what it was that kept them together, they said it wasn’t romance. It was “a deep, caring friendship.” It was “the ability to enjoy each other’s company” and share one another’s interests. It sounds simple, but this kind of love takes time and effort. In some ways, relationships are like a garden, a car, or a home. They need constant care, periodic tune-ups, and occasional repairs.
We know what it means to maintain a house, a car, or a flowerbed. But what does that kind of careful maintenance look like in a relationship? It means being thoughtful and caring. It means doing things together. It means sacrificing for and serving one another. Anything that shows we value and care about the relationship can nourish love-and, when necessary, revive it.
One man writes a love poem to his wife every year on her birthday. A woman sends a weekly email to her grown children letting them know they’re loved. Siblings gather twice a year to help their sister in need of home and yard care. In every case, love is the reason.
Love is what gives meaning to life-but only when we are willing to offer a bit of our lives to give meaning to our love.

I love this program. It proved to be my motivation for joining the Church over 45 years ago. I gained a testimony of the truth by listening to it. As an organist in the Church I would like to make a suggestion. The Tabernacle Organists are some of the best in the world. Please let us watch them perform when they are playing their solos not look at every creek in the State of Utah. Other organists can learn a great deal by watching them perform. The music in all of our Chapels and other churches may be enhanced greatly by this spiritual and educational opportunity for organists.

Anyone who hasn't watched American Gospel on NETFLIX should give it a watch and tell their friends and family who may not be believers to watch it also. It's an effective way to spread the gospel in these times since so many are afraid of gathering and they can watch it in the comfort of their own home. Blessings and love.
