   WHAT WILL YOU MAKE OF YOUR CHILDREN?

 

   A blacksmith maks $5.00 worth of iron into

horseshoes, and gets $10.00 for them.

   A cutler makes  the same iron into knives and

gets $200.00.

   The machinist makes the same iron into need-

les and gets $6,800.00.

   The watchmaker takes it amd makes it into

mainsptings and gets $2,00,000.00; or into hair-

springs and gets $2,000,00,.00; sixty times the

value of the same weight in gold.

 

So it is with life and the opportunity that

is given to each of us, One takes his time 

and talents and combines them to advance

his earthly interests alone. Another takes the 

same opportunity and, through wisdom and coun

of God's Word, shapes and molds his life for

time and eternity-

   One set of parents will bring children intio

the world and give no thought at all to the eternal

destiny of their children: They simply allow them

to "grow bigger", With no higher aim to their

existance than to make money and spend money

in the persuit of satisfying the lust of the flesh.

   Another set of parents will will bring children in-

to the world and immediately set about to point

to Almighty God. In doing so, they do the

best thing that parents can do for their pre-

cious children.

  It  has been said, "that every child has a right

to a Christian mother and father."

    QUESTION?  What are we as parents making of

the precious  children that God has given us to

prepare them for their eternal destiny??
