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

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
couldn't 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'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. 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!



When Jesus died on the cross; he was thinking of you!



If you are one of the 93 % who will stand up for him forward this with the
title, "I'm in the 93%"



Would you believe 7% of people won't forward this?
