CAMBRIDGE: THIS little manual was written for my own dear children, and I hope it will be a valued friend to them, and other little ones. Every night and morning, before saying your prayers, open this little book, and read the thoughts set down for the time. It will help you to think seriously, and keep alive the feelings of love, and confidence, you ought to cherish towards your Father in heaven. 66 May you be pure as the lilies, planted in the valley of humility, and sweetly watered by the inward sprinkling" of the spirit of Jesus. THE CHILD'S MATINS AND VESPERS. FIRST WEEK. Sunday Morning. THIS is God's most holy day, and he has said, "Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy." May I do nothing to-day which will cause me to break that command, either in thought, word, or deed; and although I am young and small, I can in that way please the great and good God, who takes care of all, who watches over us by day |
