A father whom I knew had a son who had long been ill and whose end was approaching. One day when he came home the mother told him that their child was like to die, and the father went at once to his bedside. "My son, do you know that you are dying?" said he. "Then I will be with Jesus tonight," was the answer. "Yet, father,' he added, "don't you grieve for me, for when I get to heaven I will go straight to Jesus and tell Him that you brought me to Him when I was a child."

(D. L. Moody.)
