Christlikeness at home

~ ~ ~ ~ ~


(J.R. Miller)

Keep the lamp of love shining day after day . . .
amid the many home cares and duties,
amid the criticisms, sarcasms, and thoughtlessness of others,
amid the thousand little irritations and arguments of home life
--which tend to break peace and disrupt a sweet temper.

Let your love at home be of the kind that never fails. Wherever else, far away or near, you pour the bright beams of your Christian love--be sure that you brighten your own home. No goodness and gentleness outside the home, will atone for lack of love at home.

"Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous." 1 Peter 3:8
