Baptism is the beginning of a new life for each one of us, a life of purpose. The Lord is very clear about what it means to keep His commandments, come into His fold, and be called His people. His people are "willing to bear one another's burdens, that they may be light;
"Yea, and are willing to mourn with those that mourn; yea, and comfort those that stand in need of comfort." (Mosiah 18:8-9.)
There are countless stories of the faithfulness of children who are keeping the promises that they have made at baptism.
Christina was one such girl. When her Primary teacher's husband died, Christina showed great concern. As soon as she heard the sad news, she went to her teacher and told her not to worry, that she would check in on her every day to make sure that she was all right. And she did. She often too fresh vegetables from the garden to cheer her teacher up, to let her teacher know that she cared. Christina truly comforted one who needed comfort.
