D&C 61:20 -- On Starting Over

"I, the Lord, was angry with you yesterday, but today mine anger is turned away."
Doctrine and Covenants 61:20


I like the idea of being able to start over, and I think in general that is what this is about... and what the whole idea of repentance is about.  ... And truly, it is amazing that even though we have made mistakes and done bad things, that the Lord still loves us and gives us another chance without holding any of that against us... just honestly helping us to learn how to change and become better.

Today, let's remember that no matter who or what we have been, even if our relationship with God has been strained, God is willing to forgive and allow us to start over.  Let's take advantage of that, and also we willing to forgive ourselves and work on changing and doing better.

Let's also extend this same idea to others, letting go of past mistakes or bad feelings and giving other people a chance to start over when they are trying to do better as well.
