The girlie in our picture is the essence of happiness and contentment. What a fine bunch of pussy-willows she has gathered. I wonder to whom she is taking them, perhaps to mother. How very pleased she will he at the thoughtfulness of her little daughter,—a token of love surely.
Don’t you think, dear children, that God’s heart must be pained when He sees boys and girls, whom He loves so dearly, and for whom He gave His dear Son, that they might know Him as their Saviour, going from day to day without caring a bit for Him, so ungrateful that they have never loved Him, nor even thanked Him, from their hearts, for giving Jesus to be their Saviour? What a precious gift!
Will you accept Him today, as your own dear Saviour? This alone brings true happiness. Then you can sing from the heart,
O, I am so happy in Jesus,
From sin and from judgment set free;
So happy that He is my Saviour,
So happy that Jesus loves me.
