DAILY READINGS: 1 Samuel 9:15 to 10:27; Isaiah 50 to 51:8; 2 Cor. 11
Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right. Proverbs 20:11
It was impressive to observe a 12 year old’s conversation with an adult. The youth’s manner was courteous and respectful and before parting he offered a handshake. It was evident he came from an exemplary home life. In our day of “anything goes", it is necessary that parents instill godly values in children at an early age. A Bible teacher exhorted his audience, “Don’t only read Bible stories to your children, teach them truths…foundational truths for a lifetime”. It is a blessing for parent and child to accept this challenge with diligence and joy. —E. Dyck
Happy the home where prayer is heard, and praises want to rise:
Where parents love the sacred Word, and all its wisdom prize.—Henry Ware
