The Mirror of a Christian's Character

A REAL Christian seldom sees a defect in his neighbor. A pure lake reflects the beautiful sky, and the whole overhanging trees, but when it is rough it reflects nothing that is pure. A bad man—a real scoundrel—seldom sees a good trait in the character of his neighbor. An imperfect glass reflects nothing correctly, but shows its own deficiency. A perfect mirror reflects nothing but bright and pure images.
