"Love is one of the chief characteristics of Deity, and ought to be manifested by those who aspire to be the sons of God. A man filled with the love of God, is not content with blessing his family alone, but ranges through the whole world, anxious to bless the whole human race" (Joseph Smith Jr., Dec. 15, 1840; in Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book, 1969], 174).
"All I can offer the world is a good heart and a good hand" (Joseph Smith Jr., July 9, 1843; in Teachings, 313).

The heat and Carnival continue. Traditionally it rains during the Carnival season, but there has been no rain yet this year. We spent the morning writing letters. In the afternoon we saw two air-conditioned shows in Saens Peña. District meeting at the chapel was in the early evening. The sisters had made a pie and brought for us to eat after the meeting. The new handbook, which I typed while staying in the mission office in December, is finally out. We went over it in district meeting.
