Charity

45 And charity suffereth long, and is kind, and envieth not, and is not puffed up, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil, and rejoiceth not in iniquity but rejoiceth in the truth, beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
46 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, if ye have not charity, ye are nothing, for charity never faileth. Wherefore, cleave unto charity, which is the greatest of all, for all things must fail—
47 But charity is the pure love of Christ, and it endureth forever; and whoso is found possessed of it at the last day, it shall be well with him.

Moroni 7:45 - 47

I have a friend who just has a stroke. Her physical body is fine, but she can't talk or read. I can see the frustration in her face. She thinks it inside, but can't say it. I have to guess what she's thinking. How hard that must be for her. Feelings of love and charity boil out of me for her. I hope I can always have charity.
