I have a True Story to share with you...
Around the first of the year I learned what Artisan Bread was.
I attempted to make it as I saw it made. It worked and I felt good with my new accomplishment.
I then taught my girls how to make it.
One of my girls taught her friend to make it.
Who in turn now makes it for every family gathering she attends, as well as it is the only bread her young growing family now eats (she doesn't buy store bought anymore).
My daughter brought some to an older lady in her ward who wanted to know more about it. Once it was shared with her, she went out and purchased a special pan to make it in and now makes and delivers to people in her ward...just because. This woman is probably in her 70's and can not eat the bread herself due to health. When asked "Why she does this" commented, "Just because I can't eat it doesn't mean I can't make someone happy by bringing it to them". So she does, Often.
I mentioned that I had taught my daughters to make it. Well I also have a son. He called the other day asking the recipe, since his wife was out of town with her sister who had just delivered a baby.
He decided to mix the bread up one afternoon and ended up preparing and baking it in the wee hours of the morning to bring to work...Which sparked more desires from others, asking how.
SEE what ONE person can do to Influence, Inspire and Bless the lives of others?!
It doesn't have to be bread. It doesn't even have to be food.
It just needs to be something!
WHATEVER YOUR PASSION
PASS IT ON.
In John 13:15 the Lord admonishes us with these words:
15: For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
