I heard of a little girl who had learned to love the Savior the Lord Jesus Christ, and was told that a certain man was an infidel.
"What is an infidel?" she inquired; and when it was explained to her she seemed very much surprised. A few days later, that man was walking down the street, and the little girl came up to him and said,
"Why don't you love Jesus?"
He pushed her away, but she repeated the question again and again, and he saw that there were tears in her eyes. That question began to trouble him. He could not get rid of it day or night. It kept coming up to him from the sidewalk, from the letters on his desk, from the voices of his children at play, and the pillow kept whispering it to him after he went to bed. At last he got up and said,
"I will go and get the Bible and find some place where Christ has contradicted Himself, and that will be a good reason why I should not love Him."
So he took the Book and opened it at the Gospel of John—he had opened at the wrong place; if anyone wants to find reasons for not loving Christ he must not go to that Book; and there he found out reasons for loving the Son of God instead of hating Him, and before the sun was up he had begun to seek the Lord with all his heart, and was very soon converted.
