One of the thoughts that has occupied me lately is the real danger that takes place when I start to think that I am better than someone else. King Benjamin said it best in his discourse when he asked:
"...Are we not all beggars? Do we not all depend upon the same Being, even God, for all the substance which we have, for both food and raiment, and for gold, and for silver, and for all the riches which we have of every kind?" (Mosiah 4:19)
When cast in that light, it is a good reminder that in the sight of our Father in Heaven, we are all equal. Race, language, intelligence, or any of the other factors that make us distinct do not matter to our Father in Heaven. We are all His children, and He loves us all equally. What's more, if we are to return to live with Him again, we need each other, for if we fail to learn to love and serve our brothers and sisters here on this Earth, there is no way that we can ever expect to become as our Father is.
