LITTLE Lizzie’s testimony to the saving grace of God, even when she was only five years old, was indeed bright. When she was but three years old, she sang in the Sunday-school treat the well-known hymn,
“Jesus loves me, this I know;
For the Bible tells me so.”
As the sweet, childish voice rang out in the large hall, strong men wept, and one said,
“It is the best sermon I ever heard.”
I have not the slightest doubt that dear little Lizzie was saved by grace at that time, and knew it then, and rejoiced in Christ as her Saviour.
It is sometimes said that all “good children die young,” but Lizzie did not die, but lives still, happy in the dear Saviour’s love. She loves to tell others of how much He has done for her.
If you would truly be happy, from your childhood days right on through life, it can only be by knowing and believing that Jesus loves you, and that He is your personal Saviour and Lord.
“If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Rom. 10:9.
