Right now, someone in your life feels alone. Maybe it’s a friend struggling with their faith. Maybe it’s someone who doesn’t feel included. Maybe it’s you. Luke 15 teaches us that Christ always goes after the one—and so can we. Carmen Herbert challenges you to look for the one and take action. Who needs you today? A simple invite, a kind message, or just showing up could make all the difference.
The parable of the Good Samaritan is more than just a nice story—it’s an invitation. In Luke 10, the Samaritan tells the innkeeper, “Take care of him.” That’s exactly what the Savior asks of us. Who in your life needs care today? Maybe it’s a friend who’s feeling left out. Maybe it’s a family member who needs a listening ear. Maybe it’s a stranger whose day could be changed by a small act of kindness. Take the challenge today—ask the Savior to open your eyes to someone you can help. A simple act of love can be life-changing.
Have you ever looked back and realized you missed the most important part? When Justin Anderson was a young Elder’s Quorum President, his main goal was to get people to come to church. But now, years later, he sees it differently. The greatest thing he could have done wasn’t just inviting them to sit in a pew—it was making sure they knew they were loved. That they weren’t alone. That no matter where they were in life, they had a friend. What if that was our focus in ministering? How different would our relationships be?
