We must have moral backbone, an integrity that cannot be flattered, bribed, or terrified.
Man can shape circumstances, but circumstances should not be allowed to shape the man.

Thousands pass through life as if they had no great object for which to live, no high standard to

reach. One reason for this is the low estimate which they place upon themselves. Christ paid an infinite price for us, and according to the price paid He desires us to value ourselves. The cultivated mind is the measure of the man. Your education should continue during your lifetime; every day you should be learning and putting to practical use the knowledge gained.

Some have no firmness of character. Their plans and purposes have no definite form and consistency. They are of but little practical use in the world. This weakness, indecision, and inefficiency should be overcome. In the life of Christ, everything was made subordinate to His work, the great work of redemption which He came to accomplish.

There is a picture representing a bullock standing between a plow and an altar, with the inscription, "Ready for either," ready to toil in the furrow or to be offered on the altar of sacrifice.

To His workers He says, I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done.
John 13:15
