Character grows and develops
Character grows and develops as the baby passes 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 . Final character is the result of all these influences that work and co-work upon the Christian life.
In the end we are to be altogether like Jesus; hence all life's aiming and striving should be towards Christ's blessed beauty.
