The Young Should be Valued
Deuteronomy 11:19-21
And you shall teach them your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, when you lie down…


Value the young. How precious these germs are! These spring buds are lovely to look upon, but their worth is greater than their beauty. An immortal life is opening there; heed it well. Proprietors rear strong fences round young trees, while they leave the aged forests to take their chance. Permit not the immortal to be twisted at the very starting of its growth for the want of such protection as it is in your power to afford.

(W. Arnot.)
