Children's sermons
A little girl was anxious for the conversion of her dear father. He
accompanied her to the revival meeting, but when she asked him to
give his heart to Jesus, he said, "Not now, some other day." This
caused the little girl to cry herself to sleep that night, and in her
sleep she had a dream. This was the dream. She seemed to see a throng
of angels coming in through the window, and passing into her father's
room. This alarmed her greatly, for she thought they had come after
her father, and remembering he had rejected Jesus the night before,
she knew he was not ready to go, so she followed them and looked into
the room. They all had gathered around her father's bed and had been
trying to lift him up in their arms, and having failed she overheard
one angel say: "He is too heavy for the angels. We cannot take him to
heaven, for his sin is on him, and all the angels in the skies could
not lift him." This startled the little girl, so she awoke from her
dream. The next day she told her father the dream and said, "The
angels said that you 'are too heavy for the angels.'" This thought
caused the father to think--"to heavy for the angels"--and this
thought brought him to Jesus, and he got rid of the sin on him. This
is how he did it. It was the same way that Pilgrim got rid of his
burden. He knelt at the foot of the Cross with a broken, penitent
heart, and the burden of his sin rolled away.
Now take the block of sin, lay it on the larger block painted red and
marked "Jesus," and say, "I now by faith lay my sins on Jesus, and
they are all taken away, and taken away to stay." "He hath laid on
him the iniquity of us all."

THE LORD'S PRAYER IN CANDLES
OBJECTS: A Number of Colored Candles=
In this chapter the truths of the Lord's Prayer are made to shine
forth. This is done by the use of a number of common candles.
"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet," says the old true Book. We will
turn on the light of the Lord's Prayer and let it shine into our
hearts so that we may see God's truth.
