Snowballing

In our picture the boys and girls seem to be enjoying themselves by snowballing each other. They are prepared for the cold and snow with their warm caps and coats. How much children enjoy the snow.

There is but one thing in this world that is whiter than snow, and that is, a sinner washed in the precious blood of Jesus.

We trust that all of our dear rears have heard the gospel message,—that Jesus died for sinners, and shed His precious blood on Calvary’s cross to wash away the sins of all who will come to Him, accepting Him as their own Saviour. May each one of our little friends be able to say,

“The blood of Jesus Christ, God’s Son, has washed me, and I am whiter than snow.” Psa. 51:7⁷Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. (Psalm 51:7).

“THOUGH YOUR SINS BE AS SCARLET, THEY SHALL BE AS WHITE AS SNOW.” Isa. 1:18¹⁸Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. (Isaiah 1:18).

Jesus, spotless Lamb of God,

Thou hast bought me with Thy blood—

I would value naught beside

Jesus—Saviour—crucified.

I am Thine—and Thine alone,

This I gladly, fully own;

And, in all my works and ways,

Only now would seek Thy praise.

Help me to confess Thy name;

Bear with joy Thy cross and shame,
