Author Unknown

There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm. 
And he
was given a slingshot to play without in the woods. he practiced 
in the
woods, but he could never hit the target. And getting a little
discouraged; he headed back to dinner. As he was walking back he 
saw
Grandma's pet duck. Just out of impulse, he let 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 that day Grandma said, Sally, let's wash the dishes. 
But
Sally said, Grandma, Johnny told me he wanted to help in the 
kitchen
today, didn't you Johnny? And then she whispered to him, 
Remember, the
duck? So Johnny did the dishes. Later Grandpa asked if the 
children
wanted to go fishing, and Grandma said, I'm sorry but I need 
Sally to
help make supper. But Sally smiled and said, Well, that's all 
right
because Johnny told me he wanted to help. And she whispered 
again,
Remember, the duck? So Sally went fishing and Johnny stayed. 
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
killed the duck. She 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. But I was just wondering 
how long
would you let Sally make a slave of you.

I don't know what's in your past. I don't know what one sin the 
enemy
keeps throwing up in your face. But whatever it is, I want you to 
know
something. Jesus Christ was standing at the window. And He saw the 
whole
thing. But because He loves you, He has forgiven you. Perhaps 
He's
wondering how long you'll let the enemy make a slave out of you. 
The
great thing about God is that He not only forgives, but He 
forgets!!!
