The pathway to goodness is not marked with neon and no messages are written against the sky. Yet, the way is clear and open. We must look first to the example ot the lite of Christ upon earth. The life of Christ upon earth set for man the }>erfcct example of a life of dedication and service. We have, in the teachings of Christ, all the guide lines that we need. If you would strengthen your faith, if you seek guidance, read tlie word of God, turn your thoughts more often to the teachings of Christ, your footsteps more often to the open door of the church.
