HOW happy the children are at their father’s return. They had been waiting and watching to see who would meet him first. Some time had passed, the father did not come, so they began to play.
At the moment of arrival they were surprised by their father’s presence on the steps. These children are French. We will call the boys Armand and Louis and the girl Pauline. Armand is running to tell his brother Louis, while Pauline cannot let her father go, so delighted is she to be with him again.
What a pleasant time a home-coming is!
The Lord is coming, children, very soon. Will He find us waiting and watching? We are waiting for Him but do not forget to watch or He will surprise you.
He is coming soon to take us to His Father’s home above.
Are on all ready to meet Him? If not, why not? There is no love like His and no true happiness apart from Him. Then children,
Come to Jesus, come to Jesus,
Come to Jesus, just now,
He will save you, He will save you,
He will save you just now.
