The Delights of Home
Matthew 21:17
And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodged there.…


If you would enjoy pleasure, innocent, pure, daily-renewing, never disgracing, never cloying; delights worthy of the man and the Christian, seek them not at a distance from you, since they lie at home; seek them not in things which are not in your power; but in what is more your own; seek them in the happiness of domestic life. If you may venture to expect them anywhere, it is certainly there they must be found!

(C. J. Zollikofer.)
