Greater love hath no man than this… , by Elder Tad R. Callister
“The Savior’s love was not a love for the righteous only; it was not an abstract love; nor was it demonstrated by one dramatic sacrificial act and nothing more. To the contrary, it was a day-by-day, even moment-by-moment love! It was love that stretched from premortality into eternity….It was a love that blessed little children, healed the sick, and offered hope to the hopeless. It was a love that reached out to every individual as he or she was and lifted them to higher ground. Love was exhibited in every conscious, waking moment of his mortal life. Love flowed from every pore, every thought, every act. As naturally and regularly as we seek air, he sought to bless. Again and again in those moments of physical exhaustion and pressing ‘agendas’ he was there for the one — to lift, to love, and to bless. His entire life was an accumulation of acts of love, capped by the most significant of all — his atoning sacrifice.” (An excerpt from The Infinite Atonement)
