Excerpt from Family Worship: A Course of Morning and Evening Prayers for Every Day in the Month, to Which Is Prefixed, a Discourse on Family Religion, With Additions
True piety is a principle which leads a man to honour God, in every thing. It will have an influence upon him abroad, and at home; in society, and in solitude; upon common, as well as extraordinary occasions.
It is this principle which leads a Christian to exercise a religious care over his family. And in this part of his conduct he shows, not only the devout state of his affections, but likewise the soundness of his judgment. Every wise man sees the necessity of having some plan of domestic government, in order to preserve his house from being a scene of confusion and misery.
