Book of Mormon Study: "“Alma describes receiving God's image in our countenances(Alma 5:14). We won't be ready to see the face of God until we've spent a lifetime studying our own, learning intimately all its blemishes and sunspots, and until we've spent more time creating laugh lines or drying tears then applying makeup or styling our hair. Do our mirrors sharpen our vision, or do we take false comfort in the reflections of distorted glass? We ought to select mirrors that will magnify our warts and wrinkles, helping us see that we are not as consecrated as we think, not as generous to the poor, Never As gracious and forgiving and tender as we hope. The gospel is precisely such a mirror, a tool designed for self reflection and repentance. If we weaponize those mirrors against others rather than turning them thoughtfully on ourselves, we can be sure that we have fallen into the same distortions that characterize the Nephites in the Book of Helaman “ Kimberley Berkey
