“ROBERT,” said his mother, “will you come and nurse the baby for me?”
Robert was spinning his top in the yard, but he at once put it in his pocket, and said, “Yes, mother.”
He was fond of play, but he had been taught to make himself useful, and to do as he was bid.
How kind and gentle he was with the baby.
God says, “Honour thy father and thy mother.” To honour them is to obey them. When children do not obey their parents, they sin against God.
妈妈说:“罗伯特,帮我来照看一下小宝宝行吗?”
罗伯特正在院子里转陀螺,不过马上就把陀螺塞到口袋里说:“好,妈妈!”
罗伯特很喜欢玩儿,可父母教给了他,要让自己做个有用的人,做事要听父母的话。
他照顾小宝宝多么温柔用心啊!
上帝说:“你们当孝敬父母。”孝敬他们,也就是听他们的话。孩子只要不听父母的话,就是对上帝犯了罪。
