Listen from:
A mother's child was dying. The child asked her: 'What are those clouds and mountains that I see so dark?"
"Eddy," said his mother, "there are no clouds or mountains, you are mistaken."
"But I see great mountains, and dark clouds, and I want you to take me in your arms and carry me over the mountains."
"Ah," said the mother, "pray to Jesus, He will carry you safely. Unbelief is coming upon you, my child. Pray that the Lord will be with you."
The two prayed, but the boy turned to her and said: "Do you hear the angels, mother, calling for me? But I can't go!"
"Darling, pray to Jesus, only he can take you."
The boy closed his eyes and prayed, and when he opened them, he smiled and said, "Jesus has come to carry me over the mountains."
Dear sinner, Jesus is ready and willing to carry you over the mountains of sin, and over your mountains of unbelief. Give yourself to Him.
