Alma 57:25
I love the contrast in this verse. There's great hope because none were lost/perished. Through the Atonement of Jesus Christ we can be saved from spiritual death.
The second part if the sentence is a loving warning from the Lord, " yea, and neither was there one soul among them who had not received many wounds." I try to let people know if something is going to hurt. It could be ripping off a bandaid or a call to repentance. I try to be honest. It's going to hurt to some degree. It's still necessary and worth it. That's how this verse feels to me. It's Heavenly Father preparing us for the fight and the work but also the battle scars that inevitably come in life. It's all necessary and worth.
