"Works of righteousness naturally position God's saints near him by way of similitudal emulation. When we obey God's law we naturally become like him in all of his greatness one very small step at a time. Our current direction is more important to God than the missteps of our past. Look beyond your follies to a day of ultimate perfection for it is not far distant. Soon the Son of Man cometh in all his glory to redeem all those who have put their faith in him and tried his works to do even in endless weakness. Do not get discouraged when you fall short of the glory of God because he has prepared a way for us to be at one with him again assuming we change our ways enough that we again see eye to eye with him in all honor, meekness, and tender sobering charity."
