Character

Character is the product of daily, hourly actions, words and thoughts:  daily forgiveness, daily unselfishness, daily kindnesses, daily sympathies,  daily charities, daily sacrifices for the good of others, daily struggles against temptation, daily submissiveness under trial. It is these, like the blending of colors in a picture which constitute a person's character.




[John MacDuff]




1 Corinthians 15:33-34 ... Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.  Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.




Romans 5:3-5 ... And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;  And patience, experience; and experience, hope:  And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.



Matthew 12:33 ...  Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.❤
