A LITTLE girl sat still in the meeting hall listening to the preacher. She could not understand what he was saying until he quoted these words of the Lord Jesus; “Suffer the little children to come unto Me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.” Mark 10:1414But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. (Mark 10:14)
The little girl could understand these words. She felt they had been spoken just for her, and they made her feel very happy. When she went home the threw her arms around her mother’s neck and exclaimed, “Oh, Mother, I have heard the children’s gospel today!”
