CHAPTER XVI
22/41

I am very glad of my hurt foot; though it does ache." "The aching will not be so bad by and by," said the woman, her kindly face all working with emotion.
She stood there by Daisy's couch and prayed.

No bathing nor breakfast could so soothe and refresh Daisy as that prayer.

While she listened and joined in it, the feeling of yesterday came all back again; that wonderful feeling that the Lord Jesus loves even the little ones that love him; that he will not let a hair of their heads be hurt; that he is near, and keeps them, and is bringing them to himself by everything that he lets happen to them.

Greatly refreshed and comforted, Daisy lay quiet looking out of the open window, while Juanita was busy about, making a fire and filling her kettle for breakfast.
