To Make You Think

A young lady named Sally, relates an experience she had
in a seminary class, given by her teacher, Dr. Smith.
She says 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. Smith
told 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 girlfriend drew a picture of a girl 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 at
the overall effect she had achieved.

The class lined up and began throwing darts, with much
laughter and hilarity. 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 complete 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."

No other words were necessary; the tear-filled eyes of each
student focused only on the picture of Christ...
