Is. 25:7-9

The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces…. In that day they will say, “Surely this is our God; we trusted in Him, and He saved us.”

Wherever there are small children, there will be tears. In the case illustrated in today’s story, a little girl is living with her aunt and uncle. Instead of being embraced as a family member, she is treated like a servant. Instead of being accepted for her position in the family, the girl must perform to earn her keep. That is something worth crying about!
