Looking Past The Problem A Lesson In Charity

Being a man who thoroughly believes in the existence of an Almighty Father in heaven who fully loves and cherishes every single child He has created, it is my belief that this life has one purpose: to learn to love God and others like He loves us. This is not an easy task when the people we love disappoint and betray us. In this life, as we travel through the experiences God has placed before us, we sometimes lose sight of what we must focus on. So what do we do when we need extra help loving others? We can "Look Past The Problem" that others may have by recommitting ourselves to Christ and His gospel teachings. When we do this, we find ourselves focusing on one of His most genuine personal characteristics; that of charity. Charity is defined as the "pure love of Christ' and is a key element in our learning how to love God and our enemies better. In the following pages I will outline the steps that I have followed personally to become a better disciple of Jesus Christ. I am not perfect in any stretch of the imagination. But I am trying and I am learning to love my Savior as He loves me.
