Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
"Mercy, with its sister virtue forgiveness,
is at the very heart of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and the eternal
plan of salvation. Everything in the gospel teaches us that we can
change if we need to, that we can be helped if we truly want it, that we
can be made whole, whatever the problems of the past" (“He Hath Filled the Hungry with Good Things” General Conference, Oct 1997).
