Bible Note: Dear CDBJ, our little misunderstanding reminds me of a story. A little four-year-old boy became distraught with his mother and said a few unkind, but not really mean, things to her, for which she gave him a light spanking. After which the little boy said, "Gee, Mom, I'm sure glad I was just a little mad at you. If I'd been really mad I might have said some really bad things to you, and you would have probably spanked me hard, the way you did when I got mad and threw the cat in the punchbowl at your birthday party." The mother laughed and hugged her little boy. The little boy laughed and hugged his mother...... And I, my brother in Christ, laugh at our little misunderstanding and hug you, as it were, the way that any two Christian brothers should do, in the spirit of love and fellowship. God bless you always and keep your ever under His loving wing. --Hank |
