Self-Reliance/Provident Living #3

"There are many good people and organizations in the world that are trying to meet the pressing needs of the poor and needy everywhere. We are grateful for this, but the Lord’s way of caring for the needy is different from the world’s way. The Lord has said, 'It must needs be done in mine own way.'  He is not only interested in our immediate needs; He is also concerned about our eternal progression. For this reason, the Lord’s way has always included self-reliance and service to our neighbor in addition to caring for the poor."
President Dieter F. Uchtdorf,  "Providing In the Lord's Way," General Conference October 2011
