SUSTAIN

 I saw God in my yoga practice as I have pondered on individuals who have shaped the direction of my life. One of those individuals is President Jeffrey R. Holland. He stepped to the other side of the veil, but he will forever impact my life in a positive way. He spoke of sustaining: “that it is no small thing to sustain another person. The word literally means to “hold up.” When we sustain life, we nourish it, we keep it going. When we sustain a friend or a neighbor or a stranger in the street, we give support, we share strength, we provide help. We hold each other up under the weight of present circumstance. We bear one another’s burdens under the heavy personal pressures of life.”
