AT the close of a children’s meeting, during which the preacher had spoken a great deal of the love of Jesus, and of what He had done out of love for sinners, a little boy was asked, “And can you tell me what Jesus has, done?”
With a bright smile, the little fellow looked up into the questioner’s face, and said, “He died for me.”
Happy child! In the simplicity of faith, he had believed the glad tidings concerning Jesus the mighty Savior, and the value of that wonderful work Jesus finished on Calvary’s cross, was for him.
Dear boys and girls, can you say the same in truth; can you say, like the beloved apostle Paul, “The Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me”?
How precious this makes Jesus to us, and how worthy He is of our confiding trust!
