A BOY about 15 years of age, a Norwegian by birth, who spoke broken English, arose in a prayer meeting and said, “I have been four years at sea, my father and mother are both dead, and I have neither brother nor sister. I am small for my age, but I found out that I was not too little to go to hell, nor too big to go to heaven. If I have nothing else, I have a Savior, and that is better than father or mother, sister or brother, houses or lands. I love Him—He loves me—I stand up for Him—glad, glad I am. Shipmates and others, you all should stand up for Jesus! Why don’t you? O how can you help it?”
