Scripture

Wherefore, I say unto you, that ye ought to forgive one another; for he that forgiveth not his brother his trespasses standeth condemned before the Lord; for there remaineth in him the greater sin. —Doctrine and Covenants 64:9

Quote

Perhaps we feel we have stepped beyond that reach of the Atonement by knowingly repeating a previously forsaken sin. We understand that God and Jesus were willing to forgive the first time, but we wonder how many more times they will be willing to watch us bumble along before finally roll their eyes and declare “Enough already!” We struggle so much to forgive ourselves that we wrongly assume God must be having the same struggle. —Brad Wilcox
