Stand Tall

The process to stand seems so simple to everyone, and it really is. Until you look at the details of what it takes. When we stand the muscles in our legs have to pull or relax to cause or legs to straight. Our core has to balance us so we don't fall over, and so many other things. Yet everyday we stand!
Through out the day we are asked to stand, to stand at work, to stand to walk, there are so many things we have to stand to do. 
My personal favorite is to lift where we stand;
In Doctrine and Covenants 86: 8 it states:
Wherefore, stand ye in holy places, and be not moved, until the day of the Lord come; for behold, it cometh quickly, saith the Lord. Amen.
To me this says that we are asked to stand, but it does not mean we come to a standstill! We continue to move, the lord is asking us to help in reaching out to others, and to do our part in lifting those around us. Where ever we may be we can lift those around us and help them to stand. To get their feet under neither them and tho help them gain the strength to stand on their own as well. 

What can we do to help others to stand:
Simply be their Friend; be there for them, encourage them, and love them. 
I encourage everyone to just love those around you in simple ways and to find ways to help others stand with happiness and joy!
