Preface

 
THE Bible is full of rich, sweet stories, not only interesting, but also very profitable.
“Even a child is known by his doings." Most of the boys referred to in the following pages began life well. They sought the Lord in their youth. And as they grew in age, and in stature, they grew in grace, and in the knowledge and love of God. And having themselves received “the blessing from the Lord," they were used by Him as a means of great blessing to others.
It is well that every child should notice that such great men as Joseph, Samuel, David and Daniel, sought the Lord while they were boys.
Above all, let us ever remember that Jesus, as a child, and as a man, has left all of us an example, that we should follow His steps. May we search the Scriptures, for they testify of Him.
