One rainy afternoon a mother was driving along one of the
main streets of town. Suddenly, her son Matthew spoke up from his relaxed
position in the rear 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. His mother
was eager to hear. “What are you thinking?” she asked. “The rain, is like
sin and the windscreen wipers are like God, wiping our sins away.” “That’s really good, Matthew”, she
replied. Then my curiosity broke in. How far would this little boy take this
revelation? So she 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.” Isn’t it comforting to
know that God does keep forgiving us? That all we have to do is trust Jesus as
our savior and He will keep washing our sins away. Hallelujah!!!!
