A disciple can be forgiven if he does not have great mental ability. He can be forgiven also if he does not display outstanding physical prowess. But no disciple can be excused if he does not have zeal. If his heart is not aflame with a red-hot passion for the Savior, he stands condemned. William MacDonald
About This Quote

If you are not willing to devote yourself completely to the service of others, then you are not ready to receive the gospel. The gospel is much more than a religion. It is the fullness of life. As people turn their hearts and minds toward Jesus Christ, they want to serve others.

The gospel requires us to serve others, not to be served by them. Serving others is an act of love, and in order for us to serve others, we must be prepared.
