WHILE speaking to some of the little girls in my class one day, I asked them what two words the Lord Jesus said to Philip when He found him.
“Follow Me,” was the prompt reply. Then, said I, “Those two words also apply to you. What is your answer?”
“I mean to follow Him some day,” said one.
“I should like to follow Him,” said another.
But one little girl did not make any answer. She was very attentive and thoughtful, and so our little class broke up.
The next Sunday the silent little girl put a small note into my hand, which ran as follows:
“I came to Jesus this afternoon, and my answer to that question is this: I will arise and follow my own dear Saviour.”
