A young Scotsman, not long out from the old country, attended same meetings in a district of the Rocky Mountains. A friend of young men observed the young stranger, and at the close of the service shook hands with him, and spoke to him about his soul, asking him three questions,
"Are you saved?" With tears in his eyes he confessed he was not.
"Are you willing to be saved?" "Yes," was the quick response.
"Are you willing to be saved now?" "Yes, I am."
God had been dealing with the dear fellow. Far from home, from friends and relations, a stranger in a strange land, he was in a condition to be spoken to. He knew he was not saved. He needed no one to tell him that he was unsaved. Conscious of the fact that he was a sinner, unprepared to meet a sin-hating God, he was not only willing, but anxious to be saved.
When people see they are guilty and lost, they are willing to accept salvation on God's terms. That night he accepted Christ as his Savior, and left the hall rejoicing in the assurance of salvation. Look and live now.
"God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16.
