Creole Puzzle



“Perhaps at this beginning of a new year there is no greater requirement for us than to do as the Lord Himself said He does: ‘He who has repented of his sins, the same is forgiven, and I, the Lord, remember them no more.’ The proviso, of course, is that repentance has to be sincere, but when it is and when honest effort is being made to progress, we are guilty of the greater sin if we keep remembering and recalling and re-bashing someone with his or her earlier mistakes—and that someone might be ourselves. We can be so hard on ourselves—often much more so than on others! Now, like the Anti-Nephi-Lehies of the Book of Mormon, bury your weapons of war and leave them buried. Forgive and do that which is sometimes harder than to forgive: forget. And when it comes to mind again, forget it again.” – Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
