"Paciência significa aceitar aquilo que não pode ser alterado e enfrentá-lo com coragem, graça e fé. Significa ser "disposto a se submeter a todas as coisas que o Senhor se encaixam para infligir sobre [EUA], mesmo quando uma criança se submete à sua pista."

--- Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Versão em inglês

Patience means accepting that which cannot be changed and facing it with courage, grace, and faith. It means being “willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon [us], even as a child doth submit to his father.” Ultimately, patience means being “firm and steadfast, and immovable in keeping the commandments of the Lord” every hour of every day, even when it is hard to do so. In the words of John the Revelator, “Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and … faith [in] Jesus.”
