A FRENCH monarch was found one day by some of his attendants engaged in instructing out of the Bible a boy belonging to his cook.
They said it was beneath his dignity as the king of France to be engaged in teaching the child of his cook. His answer was a noble one. “My friends,” he said, “this boy has a soul that is as precious as mine, and it was bought with the same precious blood. If it was not beneath the dignity of my Saviour, the King of heaven, to die for him, it is not beneath my dignity as king of France to tell him what has been done for his salvation.”
Have you trusted in the Lord Jesus as your Saviour? Have you ever found out that you are a sinner in the sight of God? That is a very sad discovery to make, but it is a very true one, for the Bible tells us, “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” Rom. 3:2323For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (Romans 3:23).
