God Is At The Windowanilchandrot

 

      God Is At The Window      There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm.      He was given a slingshot to play with it out in the woods.

      He practiced in the woods, but he could never hit the target. Getting a      little discouraged, he headed back for dinner. As he was walking back, he      saw Grandma's pet duck.      Just out of impulse, he let the slingshot fly, hit the duck square in the

      head, and killed it. He was shocked and grieved.      In a panic, he hid the dead duck in the woodpile, only to see his sister      watching! Sally had seen it all, but she said nothing.      After lunch the next day Grandma said, " Sally, let's wash the dishes. " But

      Sally said, " Grandma, Johnny told me he wanted to help in the kitchen. " Then      she whispered to him, " Remember the duck? " So Johnny did the dishes.      Later that day, Grandpa asked if the children wanted to go fishing and

      Grandma said, " I'm sorry but I need Sally to help make supper. "  Sally just      smiled and said, " Well that's all right because Johnny told me he wanted to      help. " She whispered again, " Remember the duck? " So Sally went fishing and

      Johnny stayed to help.      After several days of Johnny doing both his chores and Sally's,      He finally could not stand it any longer.  He came to Grandma and confessed      that he had killed the duck.  Grandma knelt down, gave him a hug, and said,

      " Sweetheart, I know.  You see, I was standing at the window and I saw the      whole thing, but because I love you, I forgave you. I was just wondering how      long you would let Sally make a slave of you. "

      Thought for the day and every day thereafter      Whatever is in your past, whatever you have done...? And the devil keeps      throwing it up in your face (lying, cheating, debt, fear, bad habits,

      hatred, anger, bitterness, etc.) ....whatever it is....You need to know that      God was standing at the window and He saw the whole thing..... He has seen      your whole life. He wants you to know that He loves you and that you are

      forgiven.      He is just wondering how long you will let the devil make a slave of you.      The great thing about God is that when you ask for forgiveness, He not only      forgives you, but He forgets. It is by God's grace and mercy that we are

      saved.      Go ahead and make the difference in someone's life today. Share this with a      friend and always remember:      God is at the window.
