Jesus in the Home

A LITTLE girl went on an errand to an elegant house. The lady was proud of her home, and showed Jennie the carpets, pictures, ornaments, and flowers, and asked, “Don’t you think these things are lovely?”
“They are pretty,” said Jennie. “What a beautiful home for Jesus to visit! Does he ever come here?”
“Why, no,” answered the lady.
“Don’t you ever ask him?” asked Jennie. “We have only two rooms, but Jesus comes, and makes us very happy.”
The lady told her husband what Jennie had said, and he replied: “I have often thought we ought to thank God for his goodness, and ask him to come and live with us.”
They became Christians, and Jesus came to live with them, and made them happy.—The Lily.
