Ethel's Question

 
A little, girl, four years old, inquired of her mother one moonlight night: “Mamma, is the moon God’s light?”
The lights had just been turned out, and the timid little girl was afraid of the dark; but she saw the bright moon out of the window, and so she asked the question.
“Yes, Ethel; God’s light is always burning,” replied her mother.
“Will God blow out His light and go to sleep, too?”
“No, my child; His light never goes out.”
Then the timid little girl gave an answer which thrilled her mother’s heart:
“Well, mamma, while God is awake, I am not afraid!”
One of the comforting statements of God’s Word is,
What a wonderful God we have. He loves to have us love and believe His Word and trust Him fully.
