ONE bright day in June, some years ago, a little girl with ball in hand, looking eager for play, ran into the dining-room where her mother was sitting.
"I think, darling, you had better play in the nursery; the sun is so hot to-day."
"Oh! no, mother; do let me go in the garden. I like it, oh! ever so much the best."
“Why?" asked a gentleman sitting by the window, as he lifted the little pleader on his knee.
"I like the garden," said the child, "because there's no ceiling between me and Jesus."
Children, do you like to feel that God is looking at you?
Perhaps you think that you are too young to come to Jesus. This little girl was only five years old, yet she knew that her sins were forgiven, that Jesus loved her and had died for her; and she liked to feel that she was always under His eye.
When you know His love, you too will like to feel that "there's no ceiling between.”
Are you going to accept His invitation? He is waiting for you to "come."
