Children's sermons
My dear little mother watched me play in the garden from the window.
She never took her eyes from me. In those days sometimes children
were stolen, or easily went astray. I can remember that often when a
child was lost, an officer would go through the streets of my home
city, ringing a bell and crying, "Lost Child--a little boy--five
years old--dark hair--blue eyes." He had gone out to play and lost
his way coming back. This was the way they had in that day of finding
the lost child, and my mother kept her eyes on me when I played so I
would not lose my way. God watches us in our play.
Let these blocks spelling "God" be placed on a shelf looking at us as
my dear little mother watched me when I played.
Next go to the word "GOOD" and get the word G-O.
That is a fine little word. It says, "Always go when mother calls, go
and do what she asks you to do." These two blocks teach us to be
obedient to her call, and if you do so good people will call you a
Prince. Some time ago the Prince of Wales visited America, and every
little boy wished he could be a prince and have a large crowd of
people looking at him saying, "Is he not fine?" Well, we can all be
princes, that is if we go when mother calls we will be obedient, and
to be obedient is to be more than a prince in God's eyes. The
obedient "GO" boy should be called little Prince Obedience--for
obedience means "GO" when mother calls, and "GO" comes out of "GOOD."
