Genesis 26:1-35; Job 32:1-33:33; Matthew 13:44-14:12
That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; That our daughters may be as pillars, Sculptured in palace style. Psalm 144:12, NKJV
Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. Proverbs 31:30
The world has its concept of beauty. God has His. The world focuses on the outward. The Lord looks at the hidden person of the heart and considers the meek and quiet spirit to be precious. How important then for parents to follow this pattern of raising their children as royalty and for us to follow it as well. —Mark Kolchin
Nor I alone; Thy loved ones all, complete,
In glory, round Thee there with joy shall meet,
All like Thee, for Thy glory like Thee, Lord,
Object supreme of all, by all adored. —J. N. Darby
