This is a short story I received from the pastors net:

"Windshield Wiper"

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 agile
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. Isn't
it comforting to know that God does keep forgiving us. That all we
have to do is ask Him to come into our lives and He will keep
washing our sins away.

I Hope each of you remember this when you turn on your wipers
and also remember to pass the message on .
God does keep forgiving when we invite him into our life.
