Russell M. Nelson said; “We mingle on planet earth with neighbors—millions of them. To serve them, to satisfy them, and to lift them are exciting challenges. Interestingly, as we strive so to do, each servant becomes greater in the process. . . .
Satisfaction comes from service to others rendered well. It is a love made visible. Conscientiously you may ask yourself:”When is it proper that I render a needed service, and when is it preferable to refer that individual to another?” As a surgeon, I was faced with this question on a daily basis. I accepted the responsibility for patient care only when I knew that I could render service as well as or better than anyone else available.
