Book Description

Excerpt from Prayers for Use in Home, School and Sunday School Repetition is delightful to little children and only gradually do they appreciate the form of words that they are given to say, so that one little prayer may grow more and more dear as it is said from day to day for a long time. When, however, a child grows indifferent to, or careless of any form, no matter how good it is, a change should be made. Feelings of gladness, gratitude, desire for help, or sorrow for wrong doing - as the case may be - should be cultivated before, as well as by, the expression of a prayer. If the expression is irreverent the prayer had bet ter be omitted. But the natural joy of a lit tle child may be so trained that a thank you to the Heavenly Father will be a growing de light, and a Spirit of reverence gradually be developed as a part of an unfolding char acter.
