The Measure of a Man

The true “measure of a man”:

• isn’t found in the accumulation of assets (the fortune),
• isn’t found in the accolades of achievements (the fame),
• isn’t found in the applause of admirers (the fans),
• isn’t found in the assortment of automobiles (the finest collections),
• isn’t found in the abundance of accessories (the furs, furnishings, frills),
• isn’t found in the array of apparel (the fashions & fabric),

But rather it’s found in the enduring faith in the Father, and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
