The Devil & the Duck
There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm..He was given a slingshot to play with out in the woods.

He practiced in the woods; but he could never hit the target.

Getting a little discouraged, he headed back for dinner.

As he was walking back he saw Grandma's pet duck. Just out of impulse, he let the slingshot 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 wood pile; only to see his Sister watching! Sally had seen it all, 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.'

Then she whispered to him, "Remember the duck?'

So Johnny did the dishes.

Later that day, Grandpa asked if the children wanted to go fishing and Grandma said, 'I'm sorry but I need Sally to help make supper.'

Sally just smiled and said, 'well that's all right because Johnny told me he wanted to help?

She whispered again, 'Remember the duck?' So Sally went fishing and Johnny stayed to help. 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 had killed the duck.

Grandma 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. I was just wondering how long you would let Sally make a slave of you.'

Thought for the day and every day thereafter:


Whatever is in your past, whatever you have done... And the devil keeps throwing it up in your face (lying, cheating, debt, fear, bad habits, hatred, anger, bitterness, etc.)...whatever it is...You need to know that:
God was standing at the window and He saw the whole thing.
He has seen your whole life... He wants you to know that He loves you and that you are forgiven. He's just wondering how long you will let the devil make a slave of you.

The great thing about God is that when you ask for forgiveness; He not only forgives you, but He forgets.



It is by God's grace and mercy that we are saved.
When Jesus died on the cross; he was thinking of you!

Dear Toya :)

Be encouraged, Jesus loves you, I pray you find time to worship the Lord with these songs and I pray you see victory over your enemies soon, the enemies of the cross.
Love you, have a blessed day!

My beloved christian, first of all i feel to thank you for opening up your problem and release it out. after people discuss your poblem it becomes half solved. After coming back from moslim religion i hope a man of God in your church laid his/her hands on you? it is important for you to become fully new in Jesus christs owned. Your marriage will stand up well soon when only you leave it to the care of Jesus and let him deliver your prayers to the Father. You will have to observe your gifts you received from former religion no matter how nice they are to remove them from your care care better trash them out. secondly go down to your knees and pray for repentance of any known sin on you also unknown and ask God to reveal more. Remember also to repent for your husband for he is a part of you through marriage. You should remember that there is no road without valleys and hills. If you want to suceed ask hope and strength from Jesus to soldier on. Dont forget we as christians are praying for you and your family. Sister have strength Jesus will soon take control Amen.
