Family devotions
(J.R. Miller)
Hearts that are drawn together at GOD'S
feet every day in family devotions--
cannot drift very far away from each other.
The domestic frictions of the day are forgotten--
when all voices mingle in the same heavenly
song. As the tender words of Scripture fall
with their gracious counsels--
all feeling of unkindness melts away.
The family altar in the midst--
wondrously hallows and sweetens
the whole home. Besides, the family altar . . .
puts new strength into every heart,
comforts all sorrows,
is a shield against temptation,
smoothes out the wrinkles of care,
inspires strength for burden-bearing,
quickens every holy sentiment,
and keeps the fires of devotion
burning on every heart's altar.
