NOTE - As a rule, children will reflect the life and principles manifested in their parents. The
reason why so many children are irreverent, irreligious, and disobedient today is because their parents are
so. Like parent like child. If parents would see a different state of things, they must themselves reform.
They must bring God into their homes, and make His Word their counsellor and guide. They must teach
their children the fear of God, and that His Word is the voice of God addressed to them, and that it is to be
implicitly obeyed. "In too many households prayer is neglected.
. . . If ever there was a time when every house should he a house of prayer, it is now. Fathers and
mothers should often lift up their hearts to God in humble supplication for themselves and their children.
Let the father, as priest of the household, lay upon the altar of God the morning and evening sacrifice,
while the wife and children unite in prayer and praise. In such a household Jesus will love to tarry.' "Christian Education," page 221.
