Secrets of a Happy Home

Posted in Family Life
Today I was gleaning through the free shelf at the Moody Library and came across a booklet entitled: SECRETS OF A HAPPY HOME LIFE by J.R. Miller, published in 1894.  One passage that caught my eye was  an encouragement to us as men to bring the  presence of Christ into our homes everyday.

From Ephesians 5:

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.  So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself.

Occasional thoughts and dialogue on Biblical fatherhood and family life to the Glory of God with a little mirth thrown in for good measure.
