I Belong to Him.

“SUPPOSE the Lord came tonight, would you be taken up to be forever with Him?” I asked a little girl the other day. Never shall I forget the happy expression on her face as she replied, “Oh yes!”
“What makes you so sure?” I asked further; and her simple and beautiful answer was “I belong to Him.”
It was enough. “Ye belong to Christ” we read in Mark 9:4141For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward. (Mark 9:41). also “Ye, are Christ’s” in 1 Cor. 3:2323And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's. (1 Corinthians 3:23). The dear child had learned this precious truth; she belonged to Christ and could not be left behind when He came for His own. As the little verse has it:
“And this I shall find,
For such is His mind,
He’ll not be in glory
And leave me behind.”
“I belong to Him.” How much is in these four little words! Happiness and security for time and for eternity.
