Carried

Listen from:
THIS LITTLE fellow has found a new way to carry his pet — in a basket on his back! But — while riding along so comfortably, the kitten sees something to interest him, and don’t you think he looks just ready to jump out? How surprised our little boy would be when arriving home, to find the kitten gone!
So perhaps after all, it is not the safest way to carry a pet! How would you suggest that he be carried?
“In his arms,” I hear someone sang. Yes indeed, for then he could keep his eye on the kitten, and do you know that the Lord Jesus has promised to carry His little lambs in His arms?
“And who are His lambs?” you may ask. The lambs are the children who have trusted in Jesus as their Saviour, and now are on their way to the happy Home which He has prepared for them. God’s Word says: “He shall gather the lambs with His arm, and carry them in His bosom.” Isa. 40:1111He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young. (Isaiah 40:11). How safe they must be!
