Willie had a pet canary which he liked very much. He found a great deal of pleasure in feeding it and caring for it. One fine summer day his canary got out of its cage and flew outside through an open window. Willie felt very bad. He ran out into the street to see if he could find it, and there it was away up on one of the highest branches of a large tree.
Willie knew the Lord Jesus as his Saviour, and so he asked Him to help him in his trouble. He took the bird cage outside, and, holding it over his, head, he called his bird. The canary heard his call and flew straight from the treetop into his wire house. How happy Willie was to have his bird back again, and I am glad to tell you that he did not forget to thank the Lord, for His help.
Yes, dear children, the Lord is ever ready to answer the prayers of His children, and He wants us to ask His help in every time of need. If you are not one of His children, you can become one today, by simply accepting the Lord Jesus as your own personal Saviour. He alone can put away your sins and give you everlasting life.
