“DO you know what it is to long for peace? Do you long to know you are saved?” Such was the desire of V. She knew she was a sinner, and she wanted to enjoy peace with God, and the Lord did not allow her to remain in this doubtful state long. One day her husband went to a service, and at its close a gentleman gave him a card, which he carried home to his wife; she read the words upon it: “God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
V. put the card on the dresser, thinking it might do someone good. A few days after, as she was sitting by the fire nursing her baby, she looked up and her eye fell on the card, “God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever―” “Whosoever,” she said to herself; “why that must mean me!”
Light came into her troubled soul. She accepted Christ as her own Saviour, and knew she had everlasting life, and she was filled with peace and joy in believing.
Dear reader, are you seeking peace? You will find it by coming to the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ. He will not cast you out; trust alone in Him. “He that believeth hath everlasting life.” A. M. P.
