    N. Eldon Tanner has said, "Service is the rent we pay for the privilege of living on this earth." And there are so many ways to serve. Whether or not we belong to a church or service organization or have a job that provides meaningful service opportunities, not a day goes by that we can't at least serve one other human being by making deposits of unconditional love.

    這段文字在告訴我們,服務他人不僅僅是一個選擇,而是一種我們作為人類在這個世界上生活必須履行的責任,就像我們支付房租來享受居住權一樣。無論我們是否屬於某個教會或服務組織,或者擁有一份可以帶來意義的工作,我們每天都有機會通過付出無條件的愛來幫助至少一個人。這裡的意思是強調,不論我們的行動大小,每一點善意都是珍貴而有意義的。
