“GROWING”
“High in the Swiss Alps there’s a monument erected to the memory of a guide who perished while attempting to lead a group of mountain climbers up a treacherous cliff. The simple inscription carved on the stone is as great a compliment as could be paid to anyone. It reads:
‘He Died Climbing!’
A noble tribute to a heroic man, he perished in the line of duty. His face was forward. His destination was up. May you so live that when you face your God and your Christ your record might read:
‘He perished in the line of duty.
His face was forward.
His destination was up.’
He died climbing!”
