A little boy named Willie had a papa who loved him very much. In their house there was a dark cellar, and one day his papa went down to it to get something, and Willie wanted to go too; so he called out from the top of the trap door,
“Papa, may I go down to you?” And he said,
“Yes, Willie, you may come.”
“But I can’t get down there,” Willie said.
“Well,” his papa said, “I am standing just under where you are now, and you can jump into my arms.”
“But, papa, the cellar is so dark I can’t see you a bit,” said Willie.
“You can’t see me Willie, but I can see you quite well; now jump,” said his papa.
And Willie believed he meant what he said, and he jumped right into his papa’s strong arms, and was safe. Willie had faith in his father, he jumped into his arms and was safe.
So poor sinners have faith in Jesus, they jump into His everlasting arms and are forever saved.
