Many years ago,a wealthy man went duck hunting with a hired hand named Sam.They took a horse and carriage and along the way a rim came off one of the wheels.As he hammered it back on,he accidentally hit his finger.Instantly he let go with some bad words.He quickly fell on his knees asking Gods forgiveness."Lord,its so difficult at times to live the Christian life,"he prayed.
"Sam,"said the man.'I know you are a Christian,but tell me why you struggle so.I'm an atheist and I dont have problems like that."Sam dint know what to say.Just then two ducks flew overhead.The man raised his gun and two shots rang out."Leave the dead one and go after the wounded bird,"he shouted.Sam pointed out at the duck that was fluttering desperately to escape and said,"I've got an answer for you now,Boss.You said that my Christianity isn't so good because I have to struggle so.Well am the wounded duck and I struggle to get away from the devil.But Boss you are the dead duck.!"
Struggle is ones evidence of Gods work in our lives.Forgiveness of sins is available,so don't despair.Remember dead ducks don't flutter.
