“Children should be encouraged to search out in nature the objects that illustrate Bible teachings, and to trace in the Bible the similitudes drawn from nature. They should search out, both in nature and in Holy Writ, every object representing Christ, and those also that He employed in illustrating truth.

They may learn to hear His voice in the song of birds, in the sighing of the trees, in the rolling thunder, and in the music of the sea. And every object in nature will repeat to them His precious lessons.” ShouldMayChildrenSongStarsVoiceChristSunTreeSeaTeachingObjectsHolyLessonsBirdRoseRepeatsRollingEmployedThunderRepresentingLiliesVinesBe EncouragedIllustratingSun And Stars Author:Ellen G.
