In Mark chapter 2 we learn of a man who was sick with palsy and was taken to be healed by Jesus. Elder James W. McConkie III recently taught how we can be more like the people who carried their friend to Jesus. He taught:
“In order to bring their friend to Christ, each of the four must carry their corner. If one lets go, things get more difficult. If two give up, the task effectively becomes impossible. Each of us has a role to play in the kingdom of God. As we fill that role and do our part, we carry our corner. Whether in Argentina or Vietnam, Accra or Brisbane, a branch or a ward, a family or a missionary companionship, we each have a corner to carry. As we do, and if we will, the Lord blesses us all. As He saw their faith, so will He see ours and bless us as a people” (general conference, Oct. 2022).
