Instruction, and advice, and commands will profit little, unless they are backed up by the pattern of your own life. Your children will never believe you are in earnest, and really wish them to obey you, so long as your actions contradict your counsel... Think not your children will practise what they do not see you do. You are their model picture, and they will copy what you are... will seldom learn habits which they see you despise, or walk in paths in which you do not walk yourself.

I want people to fill their minds with passages of Scripture while they are well and strong, that they may have sure help in the day of need.

Let us remember, there is One who daily records all we do for Him, and sees more beauty in His servants' work than His servants do themselves...
