The Soul's Achievment by Herbert Cusing Tolman T HE achievement of the soul is .the house not made with hands,. which we are daily building in the heavens. We look at one of the city.s sky-scrapers and we shudder to think how appalling the catastrophe if its walls should collapse. But we know that steel girders support them and that the steel has been tested in the furnace of fire.
Salvation is character, and that part of life endures which has been tested and tried.
Our building in heaven will be what we put into it. God takes the material we give Him. This is a solemn thought, for it carries with it the responsibility to build properly. If we are selfish, our building must be selfish. If we are hateful, our building must be ugly.
