Malachi 2:10-12 Have we not all one father? has not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother… I once said to a young person, "Well, Elizabeth, do you love God?" And what do you think her answer was? "Ah, I've been trying, sir; but it's hard, it's hard." That was how she answered. Then I said to her, "I'm afraid you don't know who and what God is. Try and find that out," I continued, "and then I think you'll love Him and have no difficulty in doing so." And it was just as I said it would be. Elizabeth went home, and before she slept that night she made one of the grandest discoveries any one ever made. What do you think it was? Why, she discovered that there was One up in heaven who felt for her all a father's love. She found out by reading her New Testament that God was her Father. (A. Scott.)
