Not a pause for a moment in His presence, but personal contact with Christ, to sit down in companionship with Him--this is our need. Happy will it be for the children of our homes and the students of our schools when parents and teachers shall learn in their own lives the precious experience pictured in these words from the Song of Songs: "As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, So is my Beloved among the sons. I sat down under His shadow with great delight, And His fruit was sweet to my taste. He brought me to the banqueting house, And His banner over me was love." Canticles 2:3, 4.

Ikke blot et kort øjeblik sammen med ham, men en personlig kontakt med Kristus, hvor man slår sig til ro hos ham dette er, hvad vi trænger til. Det vil være en lykke for børnene i vore hjem og for de unge i vore skoler, hvis forældre og lærere i deres eget liv oplever dette vidunderlige, som skildres i disse ord fra Salomons Højsang:» Som et æbletræ blandt skovens træer er min ven blandt unge mænd. I hans skygge har jeg lyst til at sidde, hans frugt er sød for min gane. Til en vinhal bragte han mig, hvor mærket over mig er kærlighed.« Højs. 2,3-4.
