Secondly. the pillar is part of the
building. And the building finds even
expression in very pillar itself. In
dividual acts repeated become habits.
Habits make character Character de-
termines our destiny. BY our individ-
ual and though tless acts we move slow
ly but surely forward into that place
which we will occupy, that character
which whether we would have it so or
not must be ours. 1t is within us. We
are surrounded by it, The figure is
pregnant of all JOY, peace and blessed
ness of every kind. All the qualities,
associations and suggestions of God S
Temple are to begin, and shine forth
from him that overcometh.
And lastly the pillar is an integral
part of the fabric. As it stands roof
and walls remain firm in their several
places, filling their several Offices. The
one who overcomes aids in uplifting
and upholding others. Whether we
will or not we exert an influence on
those around us. For good or for i'll.
To him that overcomes is given the
satisfaction of knowing that he
strengthens and exalts those who are
round about him. And chiefly there
is comfort in the thought that this is
lasting. The pillar goes not out. The
joyful experiences do not in the future
life come ever to an end The charac-
ter becomes fixed and does not change.
For the victor it has all the influences
and suggestions of the pillar in God s
house; and lastly he is very part and
parcel of all this.
