There is a Saviour for children. He has saved many, and is still saving all who come to Him. And any boy or girl may come to Him.
He is not calling for good children —He knows that all children have done wrong; but He calls children just as they are—sinful children—to come to Him. And all who come receive His blessing. Never yet did He refuse one who came. He has welcomed and blessed all who have turned to Him. And He says,
“Him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out.” John 6:37.
I have known many boys and girls who having found out that they needed salvation, have looked to the Lord Jesus and have found peace and hainess in trusting Him.
Some of them have come fearing that they would be left behind at His coming. And now they know that they will be with Him forever.
Some have come because they felt their need of a Friend. And now they know that He who is the Friend of sinners is their Friend.
Some have come that they might be saved from the power of sin. And now they are able to walk so as to please God.
All have found much more than. they sought when they came. And all who have come are only sorry that they did not come before.
Will you not come to Him? He calls you just as you are.
“Seek ye the Lord while He may be found; call ye upon Him while He is near.” Isa. 55:6.
