On Valentine’s Day, people the world over celebrate love. But what does the word “love” really mean? Is it about flowers, chocolate, and gifts? Certainly, at times, it can be. But the second great commandment teaches of a different kind of love—that of actively loving our neighbor.
Giving help to others—making a conscientious effort to care about others as much as or more than we care about ourselves—is our joy. Especially, I might add, when it is not convenient and when it takes us out of our comfort zone. Living that second great commandment is the key to becoming a true disciple of Jesus Christ.
Of course, we must remember that the second great commandment follows an even greater commandment—which is the commandment to first love God.
We often see people in the world today ignore the first commandment. And yet, when we obey the first commandment, we are much better equipped to keep the second commandment.
It has been my privilege to witness the impact of many humanitarian efforts around the world made by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Today, may we use this holiday dedicated to love as a reminder to recommit to loving our neighbor—whether they live in the house next door or across the globe.
Long before I joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I saw true joy in the lives of my friends who were members of the Church. Whenever I spent time with these friends, I simply felt joy radiate from them.
At the time, I didn’t understand why this struck me so significantly—but I certainly understand now. Our core belief is that we are meant to have joy. This is God’s intent for our lives.
The Book of Mormon describes this belief perfectly for us:
“Adam fell that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy” (2 Nephi 2:25).
When I first read that verse, the joy I saw in the lives of my friends made absolute perfect sense to me.
To be clear, the joy described doesn’t simply mean, “Someday, maybe after this life is over, we’ll have joy.” While that is certainly true, it is also true that our Father in Heaven wants us to feel joy now.
The joy manifested in my friends’ lives continues to inspire me today. I hope you will also recognize this truth and feel joy in your life today.
As bad as things may get, never forget that we live in a time where I just watched a massive rocket perform a flawless takeoff on the way to drop off a car on Mars, boosters perfectly returning and landing upright, on my phone, in line for pizza.
What a world.
