A Welcome Word

Listen from:
A FEW days ago, I read these words which I give you, in a letter from a little girl eleven years old, to her mother. The girl is away off in another country, thousands of miles away, but how near, in heart, she is to those parents now, and what joy has the Lord given those parents about her. This is the part I read: —
“I am sure you will be glad to hear that I have taken the Lord Jesus Christ for my Saviour, and I know my sins are all forgiven; and I am happy all the day long.”
Well she may be, and her happiness will last forever. Christ welcomes the young and the old to Himself. What joy it gives Him to save! How is it with you, darling child?
“Whom having not seen, ye love: in whom, though now ye see Him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable, and full of glory.” 1 Peter 1:88Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: (1 Peter 1:8).
