All of life's

All of life's aiming and striving

"He who says he abides in Him, ought himself also to walk just as He walked." 1 John 2:6

Character grows as the baby matures into manhood. Every day something is written here — some mark made.

The mother writes something;

the teacher writes something;

every day's experiences write some words;

every touch or influence of other lives, leaves some mark;

temptation and struggle, do their part in filling the page;

books, education, sorrow, joy, companions, friends —

all of life touches and paints some line of beauty — or scratches some mark of marring .

Our final character, is the result of all these influences which work and co-work upon our life. In the end, we are to be altogether like Jesus; hence all of life's aiming and striving should be towards His blessed beauty.

"For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of His Son!" Romans 8:29
