GOSPEL TALKS
by Rev. II. G. Valentine
Mothers Fuith

81 thank God--when 1 call to re-
m~embrance the unfeigned faith that
is in thee, which dwelt first in thy
grandmother Lois, and thy mother
Eunice. Tim. lis.
We all receive much from our mo-
theirs. Abraham Lincoln spoke of his
debt to the mother who raised him
in these words, All that l am, or
w hope to be, l owe to my angel
mother" The world pays tribute this
Sunday to mother for all that is re-
ceived from her.
The greatest gift that anyone can
receive from mother is the gift of
faith in Christ. Timothy, the young
minister, had received this faith as a
kind of heirloom. His grandmother
had been a believer and his mother
had followed in her steps. He had
fallen heir to this faith and perpetu-
ated the best types of ancestral piety.
The power of parental example is
greater than we realize. Where par
ents worship God and set an example
of godly piety, the children usually
follow their example. Likewise,
much so-called Juvenile delinquen-
cy' can be traced to following in
the parents footsteps. The mother
whose time is filled with a round of
bridge and cocktail parties can
hardly be taking the time that is nee
essary to shape a child's character
or setting a proper example before
the child. Mothers must be the
character that they want their child
rem to be. If they want them to be
honest. clean, pure, and high-mind-
ed, they must be just that them
selves.

HAPPY TIMES WITH THE BIBLE
HEOR Ezra had prepared his
heart to seek the law of the
Lord, and to do it, and to teach in
Israel statutes and judgments"
There was great need for a re-
vival Of religion, and Ezra knew
that there can be no real revival
until the people come back to God.
He therefore read to them the stat
utes and judgments. Ezra read from
the law of Moses from morning
until midday, land the ears of all
the people were attentive unto the
book of the law"
What would you think Of the peo-
pie being summoned. into some pub
lie place today to hear the Bible
read? But you say, we hear it read
over the radio, and we hear it read
in church, and we sometimes hear
1t read in the home. But do we hear
it? And are our ears really atten-
