"Love is making space in your life for someone else..." (What Shall We Do?, Neill F. Marriott, General Conference, April 2016) I love this! It's true. We just need to make some room in our life for someone to be and that's it. We don't need to complete a list of specific tasks or meet a set of requirements. We just need to let others into our lives.
Christ is a fabulous example of letting others be in your life. He made a habit out of this and being their for others people to let them into his. I think that's a big key to receiving help from the Savior and being more like him - we need to let Him in.

Next Life
This is what I wrote on my Christ Daily Facebook page tonight.
So today I had some thoughts about loved ones dying and how my husband is longer here. I was thinking about how some people get married again after a spouse dies. They are lonely and want the companionship again. I get that. At this point I don't feel like it's right for me. I realized that the reasons I think and feel what I do about the topic is because of Christ. I know I will see my husband again. I know he didn't just suddenly cease to exist. I know that is true and will happen because I know our Savior's role in the plan of salvation. I know He lives. As a result, I know my husband continues to live as well. We will see each other again. I like that thought.
I am truly grateful for my Savior. I know He must have an infinite love for all of us. He has done so much.
