When the Lord
Jesus comes again in glory, and all the angels with Him, He
will have all the people before Him, and He will separate them
into two sets. One will be on the right and one on the left.
One set will be the people that belong to Him, and the other
set will be the people that do not belong to Him. Then He will
welcome the first set, and bless them, because they have done
things to the poor and miserable such as they would have liked
to have done to themselves. And He will say — 'Inasmuch as ye
have clone it to one of the least of these, ye have done it
unto Me.' " Daisy's eyes were full of water by this time.
"So you are working to gain heaven, Daisy?" said Preston, who
did not know how to answer her.
"Oh, no!" said the child. "I don't mean that."
"Yes, you do."
"No, — that would be doing it for oneself, not for the Lord
Jesus" — said Daisy, gravely looking at Preston.
"Then I don't see what you mean by your story."
"I mean only, that Jesus likes to have us do to other people
what we would want in their place."
"Suppose you were in my aunt and uncle's place — do you not
think you would like to have a little daughter regard their
wishes?"
Daisy looked distressed.
