What is it that the sailor's wife keeps so closely wrapped in a napkin, laid up in her drawer among sweet smelling flowers? She takes it out morning and evening, and gazes at it through her tears. it is the picture of her absent husband. She loves it because it is like him. It has many imperfections, but still it is like him. Believers are the pictures of God in the world. The Spirit of Christ dwells in them. They walk as He walked. True, they are full of imperfections; still they are true copies. If you love Him, you will love them; you will make them your bosom friends.
