Sin

On one table, we had a pile of envelopes & slips of paper & pens & the following sign:
Think of something bad you’ve done that you would like to make right. How could you right the wrong? Write it down on a slip of paper and seal it in an envelope. This is yours to keep as a reminder until you right the wrong.


On another table, we had a small bucket filled about a third of the way full with rocks. It was filled to the brim with water. We had a pile of rocks and the following sign:
Think of this bucket as representing your life. Think of the stones as deliberate acts of sin. Drop a stone in the bucket. Think about the cumulative effect of your choices. If the water in the bucket is the working of God in your life, how does a life of willful sin affect that?
