In this pleasing picture we see a young mother and her children, and a mother hen and her family.
The chubby half-dressed boy standing by his mother’s knee has been feeding the chickens. He has paused now and is eagerly asking some questions to which his mother smilingly replies.
Two of the little chicks are late, and come running to the feast, with wings outspread. The sleeping baby beside the mother is carefully tied in a rude low cradle. The cooking pans hang on the walls, and the floor is cracked and uneven. A bunch of flowers stands on the wooden cupboard, and where flowers are, there is usually happiness.
If mothers who know the Lord Jesus, will tell their children about the Saviour’s love for us, and our need of trusting in the One who died that we might have our sins forgiven through His blood, then they will be saved, and will live with Christ forever in glory.
It must be a happy mother and child where these things are enjoyed.
May all little boys and girls who hear of the Lord Jesus, learn to know and follow Him.
“BLESSED IS THE MAN THAT TRUSTETH IN THE LORD.”
