Scapegoat Kent had cut up some valued paper dolls of Dorotheann’s. His sister’s heart was broken when she saw the devastation. With Mother as judge the court convened. “ Kent, you know you were naughty to get Dorotheann’s paper dolls, don’t you?” “Yes ma’am, Mother.” “Why did you do it when you knew she would be very unhappy and the Lord Jesus would be grieved by your act of unkind ness?” ‘Well, — I, — I just was looking at them and Althea told me to cut them. She did, too,” the lad concluded in the half triumph of what he hoped would be a plaus ible excuse for his act. “ . . . the woman thou gavest me. . . ,” Mother thought with a sigh. (Genesis 3:12) “ But Althea is only 4 and you are 6. If she did tell you to cut them, which I seriously doubt, you knew better than to listen to her. She doesn’t realize what the dolls meant to Big Sister. You sinned when you listened to Satan’s voice, for he was the one who urged you to do this wrong. He is the source of all sin and wrong doing. “Don’t you think you owe Dorotheann an apology? Then we must confess the wrong to the Lord Jesus and ask His forgiveness.” A trembling voice said: “ I’m sorry, Dorotheann. I’ll ask Jesus to forgive me, too.” How precious the knowledge that Christ does forgive their .sins, whether great or small in our sight, as His children look to Him in confession. Yet Mother felt over whelmed with the realization that mankind is ever quick to blame another person or something for its sins. A defeated Christian who blames all else for his lack of vic tory over sin is God’s despair. “ Likewise reckon ye also your selves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Rom. 6:11). Whose delight are you?
