"Many of you, as I have, have felt fear in approaching someone you have offended or who has hurt you. And yet I have seen the Lord melt hearts time after time, including my own. And so I challenge you to go for the Lord to someone, despite any fear you may have, to extend love and forgiveness. I promise you that as you do, you will feel the love of the Savior for that person and His love for you, and it will not seem to come from a great distance. For you, that challenge may be in a family, it may be in a community, or it may be across a nation.
But
if you go for the Lord to bless others, He will see and reward it. If
you do this often enough and long enough, you will feel a change in your
very nature through the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Not only will you
feel closer to Him, but you will also feel more and more that you are
becoming like Him. Then, when you do see Him, as we all will, it will be
for you as it was for Moroni when he said: “And now I bid unto all,
farewell. I soon go to rest in the paradise of God, until my spirit and
body shall again reunite, and I am brought forth triumphant through the
air, to meet you before the pleasing bar of the great Jehovah, the
Eternal Judge of both quick and dead. Amen.”Moroni 10:34."
