| Dart
Test...
A young lady named Sally, relates an experience she had in a seminary
class, given by her teacher, Dr. Smith. She says that Dr. Smith
was known for his elaborate object lessons.
One particular day, Sally walked into the seminary and knew they
were in for a fun day.
On the wall was a big target and on a nearby table were many darts.
Dr. Smithtold the students to draw a picture of someone that they
disliked or someone who had made them angry, and he would allow!
them to throw darts at the person's picture.
Sally's friend drew a picture of who had stolen her boyfriend.
Another friend drew a picture of his little brother. Sally drew
a picture of a former friend, putting a great deal of detail into
her drawing, even drawing pimples on the face. Sally was pleased
with the overall effect she had achieved.
The class lined up and began throwing darts. Some of the students
threw their darts with such force that their targets were ripping
apart. Sally looked forward to her turn, and was filled with disappointment
when Dr. Smith, because of time limits, asked the students to return
to their seats. As Sally sat thinking about how angry she was because
she didn't have a chance to throw any darts at her target. Dr. Smith
began removing the target from the wall.
Underneath the target was a picture of Jesus. A hush fell over
the room as each student viewed the mangled picture of Jesus; holes
and jagged marks covered His face and His eyes were pierced.
Dr. Smith said only these words... "In as much as ye have
done it unto the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto
Me."
Matthew 25:40.
