Quote★★

Let each man think himself an act of God; His mind a thought, his life a breath of God. — BaILEy Trust me, ’tis a clay above your scorning, With God’s image stamped upon it, and God’s kindling breath within. — Mrs. E. B. BrowNnincG The older I grow, and I now stand on the brink of eternity, the more comes back to me that sentence in the Catethism I learned when a child, and the fuller and deeper its meaning becomes: “What is the chief end of man?

To ele God and enjoy him forever.” — CARLYLE “Let us make man in OUR image.” Such j is man’s height, and depth, and breadth, and mystery. He has not come from one principle or distinction of the Divine Nature, but out of all prin- ciples.

Man is the image of the whole Deity. There is in him a sanctuary for the Father, for the Son, and for the Holy Ghost. “We will make our abode with him.”

J. PuLsForp.
