God's Living Truth


A Point to Ponder...

Windshield Message
From A Child

 Great analogy!


  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."

 I will always remember this whenever I turn my wipers on.

Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us,
in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Matthew 18:11 For the Son of man is come
 to save that which was lost.

Luke 9:56 For the Son of man is not come to
destroy men's lives, but to save
them.
 And they went to another village.

1Timothy 1:15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of
all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the
world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.


Have a blessed day!
