Ghost every hour ofthe day, in every activity, in all that we do, that we are able to walk in our own light, and not in the light of another. These are the women that can be trusted, and who are growing and increasing in the sight of their Lord, and it is the same with the men. We should not have to be commanded in every little thing. Such have to be carried, as it were. They are not adding strength to their head; they are not adding strength to the work of God. So as I say, we should be yearning with every power that is in us, exerting ourselves for the ivancement ofthis work. Perhaps some may feel .nat they are not doing an important enough work, that they are being neglected. Wives may feel that they are neglected. Men feel that they are neglected and that their talents are not being used. Well, bless your souls, brothers and sisters, I cannot think of any greater work, or more important for the advancement of the cause of God, than to raise up these children in light and truth; to teach and train up these wives in light and truth and honor, and praise the principles of the Gospel ofthe Lord Jesus Christ. I cannot think of a greater work, and it is right at our hands. The trouble is that we are being told almost daily that the examples we are setting our children, the lack of teaching that we are giving them, is a disgrace.

Whenever you are tempted to have good fathers. They lead you right. You are like a boy or a man, say the right prayer, "Father in all good girls.
