Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Mother´s Trials and Triumphs It was a bright Sunday afternoon in early summer, and the church bells had ceased. Anne Wright sate amidst the youngest of her little flock, teaching them lessons of heavenly wisdom; not preaching to them indeed, but simply telling them the great truths which she herself believed, talking of Jesus as of some dear friend in whose love she herself rejoiced, and to whom she longed to bring her beloved ones. There was a reality and sincerity in all this Christian mother said, which at once inspired the children with faith in her; and it is a great point gained in educating our children to have obtained their entire belief in our word. It lays a capital foundation for the structure hereafter to be raised of faith in things unseen. To-day she was telling them the story of the widow´s son, whom the Saviour, in pity for the mother´s grief, had raised to life at Nain. Her voice faltered, and her eye filled as she spoke, for but three weeks ago she had laid her little Nelly, the child of many prayers, and the beloved of many hearts, in its grave in the green churchyard; and now she told them as they listened with a tender, hushed manner, which her quiet grief inspired, of the glad morning of the resurrection which should surely came, as surely as the spring had gladdened their hearts after the dreary winter. And they did not doubt it in the least. This mystery of the resurrection, which neither the child nor the parent understood, they reverently accepted, because God said so; just as they believed their parents when they told them a thing not exactly clear to their reason, simply on their parents´ word.
