About this episode
A young boy was playing with his pet goldfish, when he accidentally killed it.
Scared he would get in trouble, the boy, named David, lied about what happened to his fish.
Immediately, he felt guilty. He confessed the lie to his mom as tears streamed down his face. His mom said, “David, Jesus loves you no matter what you have done.”
That little boy was David Frey, who grew up to be the lead singer of the Christian band Sidewalk Prophets. He wrote a song about that experience, called “You Love Me Anyway.”
As parents of sons, let’s follow the example of David’s mom. Our son is going to make mistakes. When he does, let’s remind him first and foremost that there’s nothing he can do to cancel out Jesus’ all-consuming, unconditional love.
