"By the time a child comes to the age of reason home, with all its order, happiness, and beauty, means just one thing to him: certainty. In this respect home is to him precisely what God is to him, it is safe and certain and permanent, not simply because it is a house with four walls and a roof, but because it is built on the rock of love, his parents' love for God, and for one another, and for him." - Caryll Houselander
