What the parents are, that, to a great extent, the children will be. The physical conditions of the parents, their dispositions and appetites, their mental and moral tendencies, are, to a greater or less degree, reproduced in their children.

Especially does responsibility rest upon the mother. She, by whose lifeblood the child is nourished and its physical frame built up, imparts to it also mental and spiritual influences that tend to the shaping of mind and character.

When the Lord would raise up Samson as a deliverer for Israel, the angel of Jehovah appeared to the mother, with special instruction concerning her habits, and also for the treatment of her child. Beware, he said, and now drink no wine nor strong drink, neither eat any unclean thing. Judges 13:13, 7.

In the children committed to her care, every mother has a sacred charge from God. "Take this son, this daughter," He says; "train it for Me; give it a character polished after the similitude of a palace, that it may shine in the courts of the Lord forever."
