A Model Man

A CHRISTIAN man should be not only the most just man in the community, not only the standard of taste and of good conduct, of right doing and right dealing, but he should be the happiest man in the community. My religion is unreal to me until it makes me break out into a song. The Christian man should have in him such light and love and fragrance that people shall feel the magnetic influence of his presence wherever he goes, and the children feel that there is a man of God near them, and the poor and the helpless feel there is a source of counsel and wisdom and help, and this great world, given over so much to dust and noise and discord, be made a brighter place, sweeter, simpler, more typical of heaven, more prophetic of the time of brotherhood and of peace.—Selected.
