It is not so bad a thing to grow old; it is only getting a little nearer home; a little nearer to immortal youth. - Arthur Henry Kenney

The holier one is, the more forbearing and loving he is; the more tender and patient and anxious to help others in every way. Think how forbearing and loving Christ is when we do wrong; and there we are to be like Him.

God is all love, and the more we are like Him the more we shall love; the trouble is not in the quantity but the quality of our love. If it were wholly pure, wholly unselfish, it could not be too deep or intense; for all true loving lifts us to a higher plane, bringing us nearer to God and the eternal goodness.

It is the best thing for a stricken heart to be helping others.
