I want to love Jesus so much that when I look up to Heaven and say, 'Dear Jesus, I love You,' He'll look down and say, 'Yes, Charles, I know it.' —Charles Spurgeon

When you pray, you talk to God; but when you read the Bible, God talks to you.—D.L. Moody

A Father's ABC's

A father's abc's
Always trust your children to God's care
Bring them to church
Challenge them to high goals
Delight in their achievements
Exalt the Lord in their presence
Frown on evil
Give them love
Hear their problems
Ignore not their childish fears
Joyfully accept their apologies
Keep their confidence
Live a good example before them
Make them your friends
Never ignore their endless questions
Open your heart to their love
Pray for them by name
Quicken your interest in their spirituality
Remember their needs
Show them the way of salvation
Teach them to work
Understand they are still young
Verify your statements
Wean them from bad company
Xpect them to obey
Yearn for God's best for them
Zealously guide them in Bible truth

Home Sweet Home

What is a home?
Home - a world of strife shut out, a world of love shut in.

Home - a place where the small are great, and the great are small.

Home - the father's kingdom, the mother's world, and the children's paradise.

Home - where we grumble the most and are treated the best.

Home - the center of our affection, round which our hearts' best wishes twine.

Home - the place where our stomachs get three square meals a day and our hearts a thousand.
—Charles M. Crowe
