Katie

From: Messages of God's Love: 1935

WOULD you not like Katie, the girl in our picture, for a playmate? The big garment she is knitting and her cheerful appearance tell us she is industrious and willing to help her mother about the house. The interest she shows in the pets about her might indicate that she is full of fun, and likes lively games. She looks kind and thoughtful of others.

But however good this dear girl may be, we should find, could we know her, that she like ourselves has a heart which is “deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9⁹The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? (Jeremiah 17:9)). We hope she knows this, and has found Jesus as her Savior. Have you found Him?

“THERE IS NOT A JUST MAN UPON EARTH, THAT DOETH GOOD, AND SINNETH NOT.” Eccles. 7:20²⁰For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not. (Ecclesiastes 7:20).

“Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.” 1 Tim. 1:15¹⁵This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. (1 Timothy 1:15).
