SOLE Week 9
Step 9: We seek to improve our relationships with our Heavenly Father by continuing to take personal inventory, by forgiving those who have offended us and by praying for the knowledge and the power to carry out Heavenly Father's will in our lives.
Quote by President Joseph F. Smith
"Let us follow the Savior's example of showing forgiveness and mercy to those who offend us." He also said, "We admonish, we beseech our brothers and sister, in the gospel of Jesus Christ, not only to honor themselves by proper course of living, but also to honor and love and keep the greatest of all commandments that has ever been given of God to man, to love the Lord your God, with all your heart, and mind, and strength, but we exhort you also to observe that second law, next unto it, to love your neighbors as yourselves; return good for evil, do not revile others because or may be reviled. (The teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph F. Smith, p. 257)
