“WHEN my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up.” Ps. 27:10.
“Do you know anything of Him who fulfills these sweet words?” I asked her.
I wish you could have seen the instant change that came over that dear child’s face. The tears were still there, but there came over it a smile, as she said, “Oh, yes, sir, I do know Jesus, for He is my Saviour.”
A little startled at such an unexpected reply, I added, “But are you quite sure of that?” “Yes, sir, I have no doubt about it.” “But,” again I said, “are you not a sinner?” “Yes, sir, I know I am a sinner, but Jesus died to put my sins away.”
