"The example of Jesus was holy and sanctifying. All who came into His presence could feel how dreadful, yet how attractive, holiness was! Is ours such? Can we in sincerity say, “Follow me, as I follow Christ?” Is our example as a religious professor such as to influence others for good?–as a parent, such as you would desire your children should imitate?–as a husband or wife, as a brother or sister, as a master or mistress, such as to mold for holiness in this life, and for happiness in the life to come, those whom it daily reaches? Is our example such as to attract them with the beauty of holiness, to impress them with the excellence of Jesus, the service of God, and the solemnity of eternity?"
