To Parents
Luke 11:4
And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation…


When we pray that our children may not be led into temptation, let us do what we can to choose for them a place to live, and a manner of life in which they shall be exposed to the least possible temptation. Many a man prays at the family altar, "Lead us not into temptation," and then rises from his knees, packs his movables, and goes with all his family, where Lot went, straight down to Sodom.

(Washington Gladden, D. D.)
