Excerpt from That Sweet Story of Old: A Life of Christ for the Young Never was any life on earth so rich and full, as the life Of our Master. Never was any one so busy and so beset and surrounded by those who sought help. Never was a life so constant in its outpouring Of kindness as was that of Jesus, who went about doing good. Doing good in the superlative, and without stint, overflowing in blessings. Truly this was the Son of God. As I have studied anew the amazing life Of Jesus on earth, I have received impressions of its many-sidedness. He was gentle, submissive and meek. He was also valiant, commanding, and kingly. N O manlier character than that Of the Nazarene is found in all history, and none so compassionate to the weak, forgiving to the penitent.
