A young student lay gravely ill. The doctor who attended him was a bright Christian and he asked the young fellow if he would not accept the Lord Jesus as his Saviour.
“Would it not be mean to ask Him to save me when I am dying, after living without Him all these years,” he questioned.
“It would,” replied the doctor, “but it would be meaner to still reject Him when He still loves you and wants to save you.”
This was a new way of putting the truth and the young student was impressed. The thought of the Saviour’s love quite overcame him and he opened his heart to receive Him as His own. Shortly after he passed away in peace, rejoicing in the grace that had snatched him as a brand from the burning.
