Recognize the Good in Others

“I offer some final thoughts for those who love a family member who is not making good choices. That can challenge our patience and endurance. We need to trust in the Lord and in His timing that a positive response to our prayers and rescue efforts can occur. We do all that we can to serve, to bless, and to submissively acknowledge God’s will in all things. . . . With faith we can know that this straying loved one is not abandoned but is in the watchcare of a loving Savior.

“Recognize the good in others, not their stains. At times a stain needs to appropriate attention to be cleansed, but always build on his or her virtues.”


Elder Richard G. Scott, “For Peace at Home,” Ensign, May 2013, 31.
