I’m sure they cheered all of us greatly.” Ada was happy because Miss Augusta liked the verses. But she could not help wondering what the boys and girls thought. As they started toward the cloak room, Margaret came up to Ada and asked, “Are you a Christian?” “Yes,” Ada nodded. “Well, I’m glad. And look, we have a Sunday school in my home Sunday afternoons. It isn’t large, but if your family will come, it will help us a lot. We hope to have enough folks interested before long so that we can meet here in the schoolhouse.” Margaret smiled sud denly. “And, say, I just wish I knew Bible verses as you do!

The big clock pointed to three-thirty. Ada thought it had been the longest hour she had ever lived through. “Perhaps our new pupils know something they could recite. Do you, Ada?” Miss Augusta looked anxiously at Ada. Ada swallowed. She had memo rized Bible verses to win her Bible, but the thought of saying them in front of all these strange boys and girls made her shiver inside. “I’m sure we would like to hear anything you know,” Miss Augusta encouraged. “Say your verses,” Emily gave her sister a little push. Ada .breathed a prayer, and the thought came to her that these boys and girls needed the Bible verses to help them to be brave. She went to the front and recited the First Psalm. “That’s fine,” Miss Augusta en couraged. “Do you know another?” Ada took a deep breath and be gan the Twenty-Third Psalm. A warm feeling of happiness came into her heart because she knew she was pleasing her Lord. When she finished the Twenty-Third Psalm, without stopping, she began John 14, reciting verses one to six.
