The life of the spirit is not lived for the approval or the benefit of others as much as it is lived for the approval and benefit of the One who created you. Live your lives for him and you will automatically live your lives for others as well. Dedicate your lives to him, and he will give you all you need to fulfill his promise to you. That promise is one of eternal unfolding, eternal self-discovery, eternal life. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2002-10-20-Kingdom_Transcends_Mortal_Experience#Lesson Ham]

As you progress in the spirit, you bring into your lives truth and an increased responsiveness to all truth; you incorporate beauty and an increased sensitivity to all things beautiful, and lastly, you incorporate goodness, and as you become good yourselves, you show through an increased becoming of that which is value, the way to true morality and dignity. 
    +
You cannot dissect morality explaining it in all its ethical manifestations in order to pass it to another generation. Morality is passed on only through living examples. Spirituality as well remains and is passed on only in and through your lives for the spiritual life cannot be separated from other aspects of living. It colors, changes, and transforms all facets of life.

Religions have tried for centuries to teach morality, to teach spiritual thinking, but all of this falls short. The most that can be done is point a direction, but no one can give another the feet and the will to walk it.

Every person must heed their own inner calling, that voice of the spirit which prompts and leads and guides. For each person has a unique pathway to God, but as you live your lives in the spirit, the drawing power of spirit is enhanced for those around you as you become one who lives the ennobling and thrilling life of the spiritual quest. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2002-12-01-Willing_Laborers#Spirituality.2C_Morality Ham]
