Listen from:
AT A MEETING for boys and girls, a bright schoolboy with ruddy complexion said to the spear, “Will you please sing tonight the chorus—
“God’s love is like the sunshine,
It covers land and sea;
It fills my heart with gladness,
When I know that God loves me?
“It was when Mr. Goudie was here that I was saved, and my heart was filled with gladness. You sent me a New Testament, and I read it right through once and nearly a second time. The more I read it the more I see God loves me. I can say, ‘I love Him.’ As soon as I was saved I began praying for my father and mother’s salvation. Will you pray for them too?”
Since then his mother has been saved, and happy in the Saviour’s love. At the gospel hall there are quite a number of children who are giving every evidence that they have been truly “born of God.”
