We Choose the Best in Health
Happy is that people, whose God is the Lord. Psalm 144:15.
A home where love dwells and where it finds expression in looks, in words, in acts, is a place where angels delight to dwell....
Let the sunshine of love, cheer, and happy content enter your own hearts, and let its sweet influence pervade the home.... The atmosphere thus created will be to the children what air and sunshine are to the vegetable world, promoting health and vigor of mind and body.26The Adventist Home, 426.

The mother should cultivate a cheerful, contented, happy disposition. Every effort in this direction will be abundantly repaid in both the physical well-being and the moral character of her children.
