The gentle fingers of love
Christ never lowered, by so much as a hair's breadth, the perfect standard of holiness by which He measured all men. Nor must we. We are ever to keep living in our souls, the pure and unspotted ideal.
We are not to look upon any sin leniently or apologetically, and yet we are to love the erring brother, to pity him and have compassion upon him; and, instead of turning away from him in horror and self-righteous pride, we are to seek by every means, to lift him up and restore him.
Under all the ruin of his sin, is the shattered beauty of the Divine image, which the gentle fingers of love may repair and restore.
