Good Will

"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men" Luke 2:14

This wonderful verse - so famous around the Holidays - is worth sharing year round isn't it? If we can share but a few lessons with our youth - perhaps this tiny little piece of wisdom might be at or near the top of any list.

Glory to God - whatever you perceive him to be. Kindness and good will towards others!

"A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another." John 13:34

"When the Spirit of God really dwells within, there is a baptism of love which evinces itself not only in the household, and to those naturally lovable, but goes out to all the world, and embraces in its tenderness such as have no natural traits of beauty. Thus the soft waters of the Southern Ocean lap against unsightly rocks and stretches of bare shingle.

Where love reigns in the inner chamber of the soul, doors do not slam, bells are not jerked violently, soft tones modulate the speech, gentle steps tread the highways of the world, bent on the beautiful work of the messengers of peace, and the very atmosphere of the life is warm and sunny as an aureole. There is no doubt of the indwelling Spirit where there is this outgoing love."
