I ONCE heard of a very little girl who set off to walk to heaven’s door.
She thought the door to some vaults in the cemetery was heaven’s door; and she toiled on till she reached the place.
Then she knocked and knocked; but no answer came.
She thought that heaven must be on the other side of the door, because many people who died were taken there.
Little Katie was disappointed when no one answered her. She waited and waited, and knocked till her little hand ached; and then she turned wearily homewards, thinking the angels were too busy to hear her.
But a loving friend was able to tell her of the true Door to heaven, and to direct her to Him who said, “I am the Door;” and who also said, “Him that cometh to Me, I will in no wise cast out.”
These are the words of the Lord Jesus Christ, who was dead, and is alive again for evermore in heavenly glory. Have you come to Him yet?
