Then religion inspires unselfishness, thoughtfulness, the spirit of mutual helpfulness, of burden-bearing, and serving, and thus enriches the home life.
After a while the young folks scatter away, setting up homes of their own.

How beautiful it is then to see the old couple, who, thirty or forty years before, stood together at the marriage altar, standing together still, with love as true and pure and tender as ever, waiting to go home.

By and by the husband goes away and comes back no more, and then the wife is lonesome and longs to go too.

A little later and she also is gone, and they are together again on the other side, those dear old lovers, to be parted henceforth nevermore.

And that is the blessed end of a happy Christian home..
