History of Duck


There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm and he was given a slingshot to play in the woods.
He practiced in the forest, but could never hit the target.
Discouraged, he returned to dinner, when he saw Grandma's pet duck, and a boost, hit the duck's head and killed him.
Shocked, sad and in a panic, he hid the dead duck in the woodpile!
Sally (her sister) had seen everything, 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"
She then whispered to his brother: "Remember the duck?"
So Johnny did the dishes.
Later that day when Grandpa asked if the children wanted to go fishing and Grandma said "excuse me, but I need Sally to help make dinner."
Sally just smiled and said, "I go because Johnny told me he wanted to help with dinner." Again he whispered in the ear of his brother: "Remember the duck?"
So Sally went fishing and Johnny stayed to help.

After several days of Johnny doing the work of Sally, he finally had enough.
He came to Grandma and confessed that he had killed the duck.
Grandma knelt down, gave him a hug and said:
"Honey, I know ... I was in the window and saw the whole thing, but because I love you, I have forgiven you. I was just wondering how long you would let Sally make a slave of you."

To Consider:
Whatever your background, what you have done ... The devil keeps throwing it in your face (lying, cheating, debt, fear, bad habits, hatred, anger, bitterness, etc.) ... Whatever ... You need to know that:

God was standing at the window and saw the whole thing!

He saw your whole life ... He wants you to know that He loves you and you are forgiven. He's just wondering how long you will let the devil make you a slave.
The great thing about God is that when you ask for forgiveness, He not only forgives,
but He forgets.
It is by grace and mercy of God we are saved.
Go ahead and make a difference in your life and someone else.
Always remember:
God is at the window!

But if we walk in the light as He is in the light we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. (1 John 1:7)
