The Risen Life

“A FATHER was unwilling to let his ten-year-old daughter unite with the church, although to her pastor she gave every evidence of having entered on her inheritance; he told the father he was sure she had made the risen life her own. The father doubted until a day when he saw a playmate slap her in the face. For a moment the little girl's face flamed; her hand was raised as if to return the blow. Then, suddenly, the hand dropped to her side, while a look of peace came to her face. ‘I doubt no longer,’ the happy father said a little later to his pastor. His daughter had proved that she was trying to do the will of her risen Saviour.”
