          At the entrance to a tree farm in Canada is a sign that reads, "The best time to plant a tree was twenty-five years ago.  The second best time is today."

          If you haven't already planted the seeds for a good Christian character, the second best time is today. 

          Of course, the seeds of Christian character are spread by doing...and even more so by apologizing when we fail to do so.

          Apologize?  Well, would that child of yours learn from your humility better than from your prideful anger.  And what of a friend who you spat out at and then turned to and said, "Joe/Jane, I'm sorry..I'll probably do it again but I am truly sorry and I am trying to improve."  Word it however you want...but can an apology really hurt?

          And learn from the examples of what not to be or not to do.

          2 Peter 1:5-7 - And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; [6] And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; [7] And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

          Having read it...think on it...involve your thinking processes in it...allow yourself to be absorbed in these passionate truths.

          Practice Christian character over and beyond where you can feel what you are doing...if your compassion is sluggish and sometimes hard to find...practice it anyway.  If you patience is absent more often than present...repeat the name of Jesus over and over again in your head and heart...and his truth will come crashing through or fighting its way through your stubbornness...but one thing is for sure...there is a reward for spiritual persistence.

           Show proper respect to everyone: Love the brotherhood of believers,
fear God, honor the king.”

1 Peter 2:17
