Here are two fine deer, and their two pretty baby deer. They have such a splendid resting place under this beautiful big tree with its shading branches.
They feel safe in this nice secluded spot, and they are pretty safe. But still some hunter might come along and discover them, They would be safe no longer.
Dear reader, are you safe? Perhaps you have a very comfortable and beautiful home, well-guarded against storms, fire, thieves, and other dangers. You may think you have a resting place that is safe from every harm.
If you have learned to know and love the One who said,
“COME UNTO ME, ALL YE THAT LABOR AND ARE HEAVY LADEN, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST.” Matt, 11:28, you have indeed found a resting place from every danger, which Christ alone can give. With your soul resting there, you need have no fear.
