HE’LL ALWAYS TURN TO YOU FOR COUNCIL AND SECURITY! He has implicit confidence in your wisdom, your goodness and strength. From his child’s eyes gazing into yours shines the.light of his utter faith in you, and from the clasp of his small hand in yours is expressed the utmost in confidence and trust. The baby is ready to love his fellow humans and should be reared in the same spirit. If he sees no evidence of prejudice on the part of his elders he will assume none—and will live in making others happy and secure. No parent wants his child to be afraid of his fellow human being because they consider his race, religion or creed a target for cruelty. V our Church endorses this spirit of brotherhood; help foster this spirit by attending services regularly.
