We tend to become like those whom we admire Godly men

 "Sometimes in our lives, 
tears are the lenses we need to see Jesus"
Pope Francis


Sometimes we can take offense so easily. On other occasions we are too stubborn to accept a sincere apology. Who will subordinate ego, pride, and hurt then step forward with, "I am truly sorry! Let's be as we once were: friends. Let's not pass to future generations the grievances, the anger of our time." Let's remove any hidden wedges that can do nothing but destroy. Where do hidden wedges originate? Some come from unresolved disputes, which lead to ill feelings, followed by remorse and regret. Others find their beginnings in disappointments, jealousies, arguments, and imagined hurts. We must solve them lay them to rest and not leave them to canker, fester, and ultimately destroy. 
 Thomas S. Monson

The Lord never tires of forgiving, 
it is we who tire of asking for forgiveness. 
Pope Francis


"Tenderly the Master speaks . . . Come back. Come up. Come in. Come home.
Come unto me." 
Thomas S. Monson
