Come, Listen to a Prophet's Voice

"As the Lord is patient with us, let us be patient with those we serve. Understand that they, like us, are imperfect. They, like us, make mistakes. They, like us, want others to give them the benefit of the doubt.
Never give up on anyone. And that includes not giving up on yourself.
I believe that every one of us, at one time or another, can identify with the servant in Christ’s parable who owed money to the king and who pled with the king, saying, 'Lord, have patience with me.'
...It is my prayer that patience will be a defining characteristic of we who hold the priesthood of Almighty God." President Dieter F. Uchtdorf, "Continue in Patience," April 2010
