AN infidel had a little girl who was taken sick and said, “Father, I’m sure I’m dying, which would you wish me to believe, what you or mother taught me?”
The strong man was awe stricken and said, “O, Lucy, dear, believe what your mother taught you.”
She said, “Oh, yes then, Mother dear, He’s your Jesus and He’s mine,” and then, “Blessed Jesus” and she was gone.
The weeping parents got close together, and mother said, “He was HER Jesus, He is MINE, He wants to be YOURS.”
And he was led to Christ by a little child.
“Thou shalt call His name JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins.” Matt. 1:21.
