Some good words on the love between a husband and wife...

"There are no hearts that hunger so for expressions of affection as the hearts of which we are most sure. There is no love that so needs its daily bread as the love that is strongest and holiest. There is no place where rudeness or disrespect is so unpardonable as inside our own homes and towards our best beloved. The tenderer the love and the truer, the more it CRAVES THE THOUSAND LITTLE ATTENTIONS and kindnesses which so satisfy the heart. It is not costly presents at christmas and birthdays and anniversaries that are wanted; these are only mockeries if the days between are empty of affection."

Very convicted reading this last night.

"The father's should awake to the fact that they have something to do in making the life of their own homes besides providing food and clothing and paying taxes and bills. They owe to their homes the BEST INFLUENCES of their lives..... men professing to be followers of Christ and to believe in the superiority of life itself to all things else, give infinitely more thought and pains to the raising of cattle, the growing of crops, the building up of business, than to the training of their children. No one can do everything that comes to his hand. But it will be a fatal mistake if any father allows his duties to his home to be crowded out. Anything else had better be neglected than his children. Even religious work in the kingdom of Christ at large must not interfere with one's religious work in the kingdom of Christ in his home."
