“As we strive to develop attributes like the Savior’s, we
can become instruments of His peace in the world according to the pattern that
He Himself established. I invite you to consider ways we can transform
ourselves into uplifting and supportive people, people who have an
understanding and forgiving heart, people who look for the best in others,
always remembering that if there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good
report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things. I promise you as we pursue
and develop these attributes, we will become more and more cordial and
sensitive to the needs of our fellow beings and will experience joy, peace, and
spiritual growth. We will be better able to resist the urge to take offense or
offend those who hurt us. Our desire to forgive, as the Savior did, those who
mistreat us or speak evil about us will surely increase and become part of our
character.” – Elder Ulisses Soares
