The Duck

Recommended Posts

salam 2 all

A beautiful message that proves a loving point!

There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm. He

was given a slingshot to play with 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 wood pile, 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.

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 couldn't stand it any longer. He came to Grandma and confessed

the 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, debt, fear, hatred, anger,

unforgiveness, 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's 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. Go ahead and make the

difference in someone's life today.
