Speaking Disparagingly of Others Before Children
By Eliza H. Morton
However hid by saint-like face,
The current of that life which flows
Away from Heaven, away from grace,
God knows,” And in his own good time he will “judge the secrets of men” with a righteous judgment. Parents, beware how you speak disparagingly of others before your children. By so doing you will sow seeds of wrong which will hereafter bear a plentiful harvest. Brethren and sisters, be true to your trust, and you will not fear to be judged with the same judgment you have exercised, and in the great day, when you stand before the “Judge of all the earth,” joy will lighten your faces, and peace dwell in your hearts.
