            "The streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing." Zechariah 8:5

Four Bits of Advice

I shall now finish my sermon with four bits of advice to boys and girls, which I hope they will think about and not forget:

1. In all your play, remember the eye and ear of God. He sees and hears everything. Dear children, say nothing you would not like God to hear. Do nothing you would not like God to see.

2. In all your play, keep your temper. Be kind, cheerful, unselfish, and good-natured — even when you lose the game. Dear children, never fly into an angry passion. Whatever you play at, keep your temper.

3. Do not neglect work because of play. Let all your play help you to learn better, and to be a better boy or girl, both at school and home. It is quite true that "all work and no play makes a dull boy." But I believe it is no less true, that "all play and no work makes a stupid, useless man!"

4. In the last place, never forget, even in your play, that all true happiness comes from Christ. If you want to be happy, boys and girls, love Christ and make Him your chief Friend. Christ is the giver of light hearts and peaceful minds. The happiest child is the child who loves Christ most.
