IN OUR picture we see a father with his two daughters. The girls must be tired, for they sit so quietly and comfortably.
Possibly they have been picnicking all day on the other side of the lake, and father has come to bring them home. He acts as though he is not just sure which course is best around these bushes; possibly he has not tried this way before, and does not know just where to go.
The father in our picture seems anxious as he sees the sun going down, and the day closing; but men and women, yes, even boys and girls today seem indifferent to God’s call, and to the fact that His day of mercy is soon to close. He has given His Son to be the light and Saviour of this world. Has He given light and life to your so soul? Remember our life here is uncertain—it may be your days are few: do not neglect God’s salvation for you. Put to yourself the question, “Whither bound?”
