examples of patience

The greatest scriptural examples of patience are found in the life of Jesus Christ. His long-suffering and endurance are best demonstrated on that excruciating night in Gethsemane. . . . He truly suffered and bore and endured all things. . . . While nailed to the cross on Calvary, Christ continued in His perfect example of patience. . . . These examples of patience have greater meaning for us when we consider the admonition found in 3 Nephi: 'Therefore, what manner of men ought ye to be? Verily I say unto you, even as I am' (3 Nephi 27:27).
