President Uchtdorf:
“When it comes to hating, gossiping, ignoring, ridiculing,
holding grudges, or wanting to cause harm, please apply the following:
“Stop it!
“It’s that simple. We simply have to stop judging others and
replace judgmental thoughts and feelings with a heart full of love for God and
His children. …
“Because we all depend on the mercy of God, how can we deny
to others any measure of the grace we so desperately desire for ourselves? …
“The pure love of Christ can remove the scales of resentment
and wrath from our eyes, allowing us to see others the way our Heavenly Father
sees us: as flawed and imperfect mortals who have potential and worth far
beyond our capacity to imagine. Because God loves us so much, we too must love
and forgive each other” (“The Merciful Obtain Mercy,” Ensign or Liahona, May
2012, 75–76).
