Express and Demonstrate Love

“Each of us already knows we should tell the people we love that we love them. But what we know is not always reflected in what we do. We may feel unsure, awkward, or even perhaps a bit embarrassed. “As disciples of the Savior, we are not merely striving to know more; rather, we need to consistently do more of what we know is right and become better. “We should remember that saying ‘I love you’ is only a beginning. We need to say it, we need to mean it, and most importantly we need consistently to show it. We need to both express and demonstrate love.”

--David A. Bednar, “More Diligent and Concerned at Home,” Ensign, Nov. 2009, 17–18
