Several years ago clergyman, still
living, took his children with him to
a neighboring town to see a woman
who was more than a century old.
She lived to the age of 103 years.
Such sights are rare in these days,
and it is we'll to turn aside TO see
them. This woman was found sitting
in her chair, somewhat broken in
mind. She was in her second child
hood, and it was noticed that she
took more notice of the children than
of her visitor. She was as if one of
them. But she could repeat several
of Watts hymns, which she learned
in her early years and as she did so,
at the close of each one, she added
the words: BLESSED Jesus" A
blessed Jesus he is indeed to all that
love Him and trust in Him. He new
err leaves them nor forsakes them.
They may change: but He is the
same yesterday, to-day and forever.
What could they do without Him
He had long been the best friend of
this aged saint, and now, without
doubt, she has gone to be forever
with Him. May we all make him
our friend, that we may know, by oul
our own personal experience. how
blessed He is.
