What Do I Need To Do?
Instead of dwelling on what is going wrong and others shortcomings, let’s focus on how we can help things to be better. We don’t need to be a Bishop, or in Ward Council to be a leader and help others. "Lord what do I need to do to be part of the solution?" - Larry Y....

Keep Trying
