Sacrament Service
First Speaker
Observer and serve.
Jesus stopped to observe where He needed to serve and He still does.
How many times do we see some act of service that needs done and we pass by?
Align with the character of Christ. Be justified.

John 19
26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!
27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.
What is your measure on how you treat your parents?
Matthew 7:1
1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
John 8
4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
“Pride is a switch that turns off priesthood power. Humility is a switch that turns it on.” (President Dieter F. Uchtdorf, “Pride and the Priesthood”, October 2010 General Conference)
Matthew 5
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
“Please remember tomorrow, and all the days after that, that the Lord blesses those who want to improve, who accept the need for commandments and try to keep them, who cherish Christlike virtues and strive to the best of their ability to acquire them.” (Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, “Tomorrow the Lord Will Do Wonders Among You”, April 2016 General Conference)

Develop our spiritual gifts to more easily keep from being deceived.
One of the patterns God uses is scattering in order to gather. He scattered Adam and Eve in order to provide a Savior to gather as many of their children as would allow it.
