The Quilt and the Comforter | 被子与安慰者

English Original

After church one Sunday, a mother asked her young daughter what the Sunday school lesson had been about.

The daughter replied, "Don't be scared, you'll get your quilt."

The mother was understandably perplexed. Later that day, the pastor stopped by for tea. The mother asked him about the morning's lesson. He said, "Be not afraid, thy comforter is coming."


中文翻译

一个周日,礼拜结束后,一位母亲问她年幼的女儿主日学课上讲了什么。

女儿回答说:“别害怕,你会拿到你的被子的。”

母亲自然感到困惑。当天晚些时候,牧师过来喝茶。母亲向他询问了早上的课程内容。他说:“不要惧怕,你的安慰者即将到来。”
