Patience, a Key to Happiness
Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Genuine joy requires patience—with ourselves, family, finances, testimonies and our Heavenly Father's timetable.
“men are, that they might have joy”
“tribulation worketh patience”
“Don’t expect perfection.”
“keep your eyes wide open before marriage and half closed afterward”
“patience is a divine attribute”
Scriptures
2 Ne. 2:25; Alma 32:42–43; Rom. 5:3–4; D&C 67:13
