CHARITY is a simple lesson that hits home with our children
Train a child in the
way
he should go, and when he is old, he will not turn form it. ~
Proverbs 22:6
According to a recent radio report, a middle school in Oregon was
faced with a unique problem.
A number of girls were beginning to use lipstick and would put it
on in the bathroom.
That
was fine, but'then they were pressing their lips to the mirrors
leaving dozens
of
little lip prints.
Finally the principal decided that something had
to
be done. She called all the
girls to the bathroom and met them there with the custodian.
She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major
problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every day.
To demonstrate how difficult it was to maintain the mirrors, she
asked the custodian to clean one of the mirrors. He took out a
long-handled brush, dipped it into the toilet and scrubbed the
mirror. Since then there have been no lip prints on the school's
mirrors. ~ Author unknown
What kind of child to your Heavenly Father have you proven to be?
Whose faith do you have now: Your own? Your parents? None at all?
Do not handicap your children by making their lives easy. ~
Lazarus Long
