Loyalty to Christ is shown in using our life in whatever way we may be able and may have opportunity to use it. You cannot be loyal to Christ and not be good. You cannot be loyal to Christ and not be always abounding in His work. –
Loyalty to Christ in The Wider Life
If we fail to make little garden spots round about us where we live and where we work, we are not fulfilling our mission, nor obeying the teaching that we should be in the world what He was in the world, repeating His life of love among men. –

Whatever else we may do or may not do, we should certainly train ourselves to be kind. It may not be an easy lesson to learn, for it's secret is forgetting ourselves and thinking of others – and this is always hard. But it can be learned. To begin with, there must be a gentle heart to inspire the gentle life. We must love people – if we do not, no training, no following of rules, will ever make us kind. But if the heart be full of the love of Christ, the disposition will be loving, and it will need no rules to teach the lips ever gracious words and the hands to do always the things of kindness, and to do them always at the right time. Too many wait till it is too late to be kind. –
