Susie, was 12 years old, but had never been able to see, We who can look around us can little understand what it is never to be able to gaze upon the wonderful works of God on every hand—never to see those by whom we are loved and cared for. But such was the case with little blind Susie.
The first time I saw her she was very sad, and did not wish to talk to me. I tried to gain her interest by telling her about the love of Jesus in conning down into this world to die for sinners, and asked her if she knew that she was a sinner.
She made no reply, and I soon had to leave her.
Some weeks passed before I saw her again, and then it was at a gospel meeting where I noticed her singing at the beginning of the meeting.
After it was over I said to her, “Well, Susie, do you know anything about what Mr. C. has been telling us tonight?”
“Yes,” she replied, “I know that Jesus is my Saviour, and that my sins have been washed away in His precious blood.”
“But how do you know that?” I inquired. A bright smile shone upon her face as she said,
“Jesus did it, God says it, I believe it.”
Little Susie was very happy now that she knew that her sins were forgiven, and that she was saved. She had taken her place before God as a lost sinner, and then had believed His Word.
If you are not saved yet, come to this loving Saviour at once,—He has never turned one away.
