Sound Asleep

Our dear little boy has fallen sound asleep after playing till he was tired. How refreshing when wearied to go quietly off to sleep. It is a wonderful provision God has made in order to refresh our bodies.
But for those who are not saved—do not know Jesus as their own Saviour—we wonder how they can lie quietly down and go to sleep, knowing they may waken in hell; or the Lord might come and they would be left behind, and the door of mercy be forever closed against them.
O, dear children, do not delay another day in taking your place before God, a lost sinner, and accepting His precious gift—the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour and Redeemer.
There are some precious verses in God’s Word for those who are saved,
“I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep; for Thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety.” Psalms 4:88I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety. (Psalm 4:8).
“When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall he sweet.” Proverbs 3:2424When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet. (Proverbs 3:24).
O, how blessed to know that whether asleep or awake, all those who belong to Jesus when He conies, will go up with Him to the Father’s house, to be “forever with the Lord.”
Happy children who are waiting
For that bright and joyful day,
Knowing Jesus as their Saviour,
They can watch for Him and say,
“Come, Lord Jesus! come Lord Jesus!
Take Thy little ones away.”
