Gold repairs dot this latticework of porcelain resembling bone marrow. Humanity’s bones are strengthened through tiny breaks; an insignificant stomp causes tiny fractures that are subsequently repaired by osteoblast cells. Similarly, God’s children are strengthened through their stumbling. The application of Christ’s grace allows us to become better.
"The need for the [Savior’s] Atonement is what makes us all equal before God."
