How contented our little boy looks as he watches the kitten play with the spool.
Poor little child! He looks so very frail and it seems his legs are not strong enough to bear the weight of his body, so his dear papa and mamma have a support for him, so he can go out in the garden and exercise his little limbs, and get the fresh air, too. All tells of the tender and loving care of his parents.
How much sorrow and suffering is brought upon the human race, all because of sin. Not because this dear little boy has sinned, but sin has brought all kinds of sickness and sorrow into this world, and, no doubt. God has a blessing to bring out of it.
Often we find that those who have weak bodies and are unable to get out like other people, are made to think more of God’s love and goodness to them than those who have health and strength. Not that we should be so, no, we should be very grateful to God for all the good things He gives to us in this life, and seek to live all the more for His glory. But if He sees fit to give us a weak body, we must remember, He is ever acting in love and wisdom to us.
