Little Karen had suffered from soul troubles for a long time. Then one day she heard that the Lord Jesus had died for sinners, to put their sins away, and she readily believed on Him as her Saviour. From then on she had joy and peace, and she liked to tell others about her new-found happiness.
One day a man tried to reason with her and asked her how she could know that her sins were forgiven. In her own simple way, little Karen explained how that God had books. There was His Book, and there was her page in it; and on that page were all the sins that she had committed. Then she said, “The blood of Jesus was wiped across the page, and it covered all her sins.” They were all blotted out, and now she said, “God cannot see them any more.”
How sweet and precious a testimony this was of the grace of God and of the cleansing power of the blood of Jesus! We hope that many of our dear readers, both young and old, might come to know this same blessed Saviour and add their testimony to that of little Karen.
“I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins.” (Isa. 44:2222I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee. (Isaiah 44:22).)
