Confidence Begets Confidence "Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as a little child the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name, receiveth me. But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck and that he were drowned in the depth of the" sea. Matt 18:4-6
HE first duty of a parent is to his child. The child
has a right to be grounded in the principles which will make his life happy and successful. The teaching of children in the way they should go
requires knowledge, patience and sincerity, and, above all, an example on the part of the parent as to right living. Children are imitators and very often follow in the way of the parents. Do you as a parent set the example you should for your children? Do you treat them as inferior beings, or do you arouse in them a spirit of self-confidence by putting confidence in them? Confidence begets confidence. Do you take them to church with you and do you answer fully and frankly the questionsof life which they are entitled to know? The church will help you answer your -child's questions, and is the one great force which is holding the family together as a Christian unit. Select a Church and then Support It By Your Attendance This advertisement is paid for by a group of men who have been personally benefited by religion and believe the churches represent the greatest force for good.
