There is a story of a Dr. Chalmers. A lady came to him one day and said: "Doctor, I cannot bring my child to Christ. I've talked, and talked, but it's of no use."
The doctor said, "Don't worry, I will talk to her alone."
When he saw the girl, he said to her, "They are bothering you a good deal about God and Jesus Christ; now suppose I just tell your mother you don't want to be talked to any more upon this subject for a year. How will that do?"
Well, the lassie hesitated a little, and then said she "I don't think it would be safe to wait for a year. Something might turn up. I might die before then."
'Well, that's so," replied the doctor, "but suppose we say six months."
She didn't think that this would be safe either. "That's so," was the doctor's reply; "well, let us say three months."
After a little hesitation, the girl finally said, "I don't think it would be safe to put it off for three months-I don't think it would be safe to put it off at all," and they went down on their knees and found Christ.
