Scripture
“But as oft as they repented and sought forgiveness, with real intent, they were forgiven.”—Moroni 6:8
Quote
“The Lord looks upon the light we have received, the desires of our hearts, and our actions, and when we repent and seek His forgiveness, He forgives. The Savior wants to forgive.”—Craig A. Cardon

Living the Principle: Will God Really Forgive Me?
Pray with honesty and humility: Speak openly with God about your mistakes, express sincere remorse, and ask for His help to change.
Make small, daily course corrections: Actively turn away from past mistakes by setting specific, achievable goals that align your actions with God’s will.
Trust in Christ’s Atonement: When doubts creep in, replace them with faith by studying scriptures about forgiveness and reminding yourself that God’s love is greater than your past.
