Martha has an old rag Eskimo doll that she has loved for five years. It is falling apart, and Mother has mended it many times. It even has an arm off. Martha has many other nice dolls, but she would never part with her “Kuletuk.” Mother suggested once that Martha should throw away Kuluk and get a nice new rag doll, but Martha said “Oh no! Kuletuk is my best friend, and I will NEVER give her up.”

The Lord Jesus too, will NEVER give up a boy or girl who trusts in Him. He says, “I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” Heb. 13:5⁵Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. (Hebrews 13:5). He will watch over and keep His child until He has that one safe home in Glory; and His love will go on forever.

“I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of My hand.” John 10:28²⁸And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. (John 10:28).

Memory Verse “THE HEART IS DECEITFUL ABOVE ALL THINGS, AND DESPERATELY WICKED: WHO CAN KNOW IT?” Jeremiah 17:10¹⁰I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings. (Jeremiah 17:10).

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23²³For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23).
