His problem was that he was us- ing rocks and they were not round. One day in his grand- mother’s back yard he saw her pet duck and let go and tragically killed it. He was shocked by what happened and quickly hid the duck in a woodpile. As he glanced up at the window, he noted that his sister had witnessed the act. Later that day, Grandma asked Sally to help her with the dishes but Sally said, “Johnny really wants to help” and then whispering to him, she said, “Remember the duck!” This continued on for several weeks and finally Johnny decided that confes- sion would probably be less painful than blackmail. He went to Grandma and spilled his guts only to hear Grandma say, “I know, Johnny. I was standing at the window and saw the whole thing. Because I love you, I forgave you. I won- dered how long you would let Sally make a slave out of you.” That my friend is the heart of God’s love for you and I. Too many people over the years have sat across from me and said, “I can’t forgive myself.” They have endured sleepless nights and wrinkled sheets on a bed because of the tossing and turning. All along there has been a God Who has wit- nessed our failures and has waited for us to “come clean” and admit our sin so that we might be forgiven. “Remember The Duck” and be free of your guilt.
