>Windshield Wiper Lesson From A Child:
One rainy afternoon I was driving along one of the main streets
of town, taking those extra precautions necessary
when the roads are wet and slick.
Suddenly, my son Matthew spoke up from his
relaxed position in the front seat.
"Mom, I'm thinking of something."
This announcement usually meant he had been pondering some fact
for a while and was now ready to expound all that
his seven-year-old mind had discovered.
I was eager to hear. "What are you thinking?" I asked.
"The rain," he began, "is like sin and the
windshield wipers are like God, wiping our sins away."
After the chill bumps raced up my arms I was able
to respond. "That's really good, Matthew."
Then my curiosity broke in. How far would this little boy take
this revelation? So I asked... "Do you notice how
the rain keeps on coming? What does that tell you?"
Matthew didn't hesitate one moment with his answer:
"We keep on sinning, and God just keeps on forgiving us."
Who can drive in the rain again without thinking of this one???
God Bless each of you.
People will forget
what you said ...
people will forget what you did
...
but
people will never
forget how you made them feel.
Remember the "golden rule": Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
