In the eternal scheme of things - not always in mortality - righteous yearning and longing will be fulfilled.
Boyd K. PackerAn unusual thing happened after that great first vision. The Prophet Joseph received no additional communication for three years. However, he did not wonder, he did not question, he did not doubt the Lord. The Prophet Joseph patiently waited. The Prophet Joseph taught us the principle of patience-by example.
Boyd K. PackerTolerance is a virtue, but like all virtues, when exaggerated, it transforms itself into a vice. We need to be careful of the โtolerance trapโ so that we are not swallowed up in it. The permissiveness afforded by the weakening of the laws of the land to tolerate legalized acts of immorality does not reduce the serious spiritual consequence that is the result of the violation of Godโs law of chastity.
