Blessed
Lord, open our ears to hear what Thou speakest and our eyes to see as Thou seest.
Give us hearts to beat in sympathy with Thine at the sight of every little
child; and above all, our Lord, to understand and experience how surely and how
blessedly Thou fulfillest Thy promise, "Whoso shall receive one such little
child in my name receiveth me. - Andrew Murray

L. Moody once said that at a certain meeting two and a half people were
converted to Christ. A friend asked if he meant two adults and a child. The
facts were just the opposite -- two children and an adult. When a child is led
to Christ, a whole life is saved! - Dwight L. Moody
America
needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe v. Wade has deformed a
great nation. The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against
their children and women against men. It has portrayed the greatest of gifts --
a child -- as a competitor, an intrusion, and an inconvenience. - Mother
Teresa
You
want to mess up the minds of your children? Here's how -- guaranteed! Rear them
in a legalistic, tight context of external religion, where performance is more
important than reality. Fake your faith. Sneak around and pretend your
spirituality. Train your children to do the same. Embrace a long list of do's
and don'ts publicly but hypocritically practice them privately...yet never own
up to the fact that its hypocrisy. Act one way but live another. And you can
count on it -- emotional and spiritual damage will occur. - Charles Swindoll
No
man can tell but he that loves his children, how many delicious accents make a
man's heart dance in the pretty conversation of those dear pledges; their
childishness, their stammering, their little angers, their innocence, their
imperfections, their necessities, are so many little emanations of joy and
comfort to him that delights in their persons and society. - Jeremy Taylor
Do
you think you love your children better than He who made them? Is not your love
what it is because He put it into your heart first? Have you not often been
cross with them? Sometimes unjust to them? Whence came the returning love that
rose from unknown depths in your being, and swept away the anger and the
injustice? You did not create that love. Probably you were not good enough to
send for it by prayer. But it came. God sent it. He makes you love your
children. - George Macdonald
