A Happy Home Is A Sanctuary For GOD.

The making of a beautiful 
and happy home!
(J.R. Miller)

A true home 
is one of 

the most sacred of places.
It is a sanctuary into which 
men flee from the world's 
perils and alarms.

It is a resting-place to which, 
at close of day--
the weary retire to gather 
new strength for the battle 
and toils of tomorrow.

It is the place . . .
  where love learns its lessons,
  where life is schooled into 

   discipline and strength,
  where character is molded.

Few things we can do in this 

world are so well worth doing--
as the making of a beautiful 
and happy home! 

He who does this--
builds a sanctuary for GOD
and opens a fountain 
of blessing for men.

Far more than we know--

do the strength and beauty 
of our lives depend upon the home 
in which we dwell. He who goes forth 
in the morning from a happy, 
loving, prayerful home--
into the world's strife, 
temptation, struggle, and duty--
is strongly inspired for noble 
and victorious living.

The children who are brought 

up in a true home--
go out trained and equipped 
for life's battles and tasks--
carrying a secret of strength 
in their hearts, which will make 
them brave and loyal to GOD, 
and will keep them pure in 
the world's severest temptations!
