A little girl whose father had just died asked her mother where her father had gone. “To be with Jesus,” replied the mother.

A few days later, talking to a friend, the mother said, “I am so grieved to have lost my husband.”

The little girl heard her and, remembering what she had told her, asked, “Mother, is a thing lost when you know where it is?”

“No, of course not,” said her mom.

“Well, then, how can Daddy be lost when he has gone to be with Jesus?”
