With great attention John (we will call him) listens to his little brother’s secrets. Very likely it does not amount to much, but no doubt he has great delight in thinking of some kind act he wants to show to his dear father or mother, and wants his brother to enjoy the thought along with himself. So John gives his ear fully to him, and takes it all in, and delights to please his younger brother because he loves him.
There is a question I would like to ask each one of my readers,
“Where will you spend ETERNITY?”
Have you, dear children, considered this important question? If not, I beg of you to consider it NOW.
Jesus is able to save every sinner that comes to God by Him (Hebrews 7:25). Jesus Christ is as able to save, as He is willing; and has promised not to cast out one sinner that comes to Him (John 6:37). Therefore, no sinner need be lost, even though he is the chief of sinners.
“Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.” 1 Timothy. 1:15.
Come to Jesus now, if you have not done so before, and then in all earnestness and affection, like the little boy in our picture, tell others of that same Saviour. Eternal happiness shall be spent with Him.
“GIVE EAR, O MY PEOPLE, TO MY LAW: INCLINE YOUR EARS TO THE WORDS OF MY MOUTH.” Psalms 78:1.
