William would see how devotedhis mother was to serve God and how she put in him to love the Lord and servehim with a perfect heart. She would pray faithfully calling on God from her bedside. She would talk tohim about Jesus. His father would provide for them and love them. He would read the Bible to them atnight. His father would also pray.When he went to church, he saw the saints of God act the same as his mother and father.
