2. Chapter 34: The Power of ForgivingTeachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Smith
I take the liberty to admonish you, because of my birthright; and I grant you the privilege, because it is my duty to be humble, and receive rebuke and instruction from a brother, or a friend. … “And now may God have mercy upon my father’s house; may God take away enmity from between me and thee; and may all blessings be restored, and the past be forgotten forever. May humble repentance bring us both to Thee, O God, and to Thy power and protection, and a crown, to enjoy the society of father, mother, Alvin, Hyrum, Sophronia, Samuel, Catherine, Carlos, Lucy, the Saints, and all the sanctified in peace, forever, is the prayer of your brother.” 13 On January 1, 1836, the Prophet said the following about his

3. Chapter 29: Bear No Malice toward AnyoneTeachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph F. Smith
O God, pity the misguided, the erring, the foolish, the unwise. In return, I beseech God my heavenly Father to have mercy upon them; for those who do it, not knowing what they are doing, are only misguided, and those who are doing it with their eyes open certainly need, most of all, the mercy, compassion and pity of God.

4. “Remember How Merciful the Lord Hath Been”W. Jeffrey Marsh
His Tender Mercy The Book of Mormon also teaches that the merciful help of the Atonement is meant for this life as well as the next. “For I do know that whosoever shall put their trust in God shall be supported in their trials, and their troubles, and their afflictions, and shall be lifted up at the last day” (; emphasis added). As C. S. Lewis wisely observed, “There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, ‘Thy will be done,’ and those to whom God says, in the end, ‘Thy will be done.’ All that are in Hell, choose it.

5. RepentanceNeal A. Maxwell
However, with “faith unto repentance,” we can push roadblocks out of the way, moving forward to beg God for mercy. One simply surrenders, caring only about what God thinks, not what “they” think, while meekly offering, “O God, … make thyself known unto me, and I will give away all my sins to know thee.”

7. What I Wish Every New Member Knew—and Every Longtime Member RememberedJeffrey R. Holland
In the prayer offered on the bread, we “witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that [we] are willing to take upon [us] the name of thy Son, and always remember him and keep his commandments which he has given [us]; that [we] may always have his Spirit to be with [us There we make covenants that can bind us together with God and loved ones everlastingly.

10. The Spirituality of Joseph SmithDean C. Jessee
And I felt to mourn for my own sins and for the sins of the world for I learned in the scriptures that God was the same yesterday, today and forever that he was no respecter to persons for he was God. O may God give me learning, even language; and imbue me with qualifications to magnify his name while I live.” 24 Joseph wrote these feelings to his wife in an 1832 letter from New York City, where he had gone with Newel K. Whitney to buy goods for the Whitney store in Kirtland, Ohio.

11. The Spirituality of Joseph SmithDean C. Jessee
He didn’t appear exactly as I expected to see a Prophet of God. He added “Surely I have contemplated the things of God.” 14 Something of the nature of these “contemplations” is seen in the pages of his writings.

12. The Merciful Plan of the Great CreatorAdhemar Damiani
We can choose to follow the plan of happiness and obey the commandments of God, or reject the commandments of God and not be happy, for “behold, I say unto you, wickedness never was happiness” Obeying the sacred covenants and all the commandments qualifies us to receive the remission of our sins, allowing us to live clean and pure lives in the presence of God as resurrected and exalted beings: “O how great the plan of our God!

13. These Are Your DaysNeal A. Maxwell
No wonder we rightly and reassuringly sing, “We thank thee, O God, for a prophet to guide us in these latter days.” 2 Young disciples will have the blessed, ongoing direction of the Lord, through His prophets. Thus, you can have full faith and trust in God, His mercy and goodness.

Alma said: “O my son, I desire that ye should deny the justice of God no more. He lifted the terrible burden of guilt his son carried and sent him back to the mission field: “And now, O my son, ye are called of God to preach the word unto this people.

16. Who Is Jesus Christ?Boyd K. Packer
We were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. “And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement” (; emphasis added). I quote but one verse from Alma: “And now, the plan of mercy could not be brought about except an atonement should be made; therefore God himself atoneth for the sins of the world, to bring about the plan of mercy, to appease the demands of justice, that God might be a perfect, just God, and a merciful God also” (; emphasis added).

18. “Write upon My Heart”Henry B. Eyring
And then, after bearing testimony of the Savior and His Atonement, the father made this plea for a softened heart: “O my son, I desire that ye should deny the justice of God no more. Do not endeavor to excuse yourself in the least point because of your sins, by denying the justice of God; but do you let the justice of God, and his mercy, and his long-suffering have full sway in your heart; and let it bring you down to the dust in humility”

In their present tragedy they were not seeking counsel or comfort; rather, it appeared, they were looking for someone who would suffer with them and join in the chorus of “If there is a merciful God, why does He allow this to happen? In response to the feelings of his heart and mind he cried out: “O God, where art thou?
