A young lady relates an experience she had in a Seminary Class, given by her teacher. The teacher was known for his elaborate object lessons.
One particular day, she 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.
A young lady relates an experience she had in a Seminary Class, given by her teacher. The teacher was known for his elaborate object lessons.
One particular day, she 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.
The teacher 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.
Her girlfriend drew a picture of a girl who had stolen her boyfriend. Another friend drew a picture of his little brother. She herself drew a picture of a former friend, putting a great deal of detail into her drawing, even drawing pimples on the face. She 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. The young lady looked forward to her turn, and was filled with disappointment when the teacher, because of time limits, asked the students to return to their seats.
As she sat thinking about how angry she was because she didn't have a chance to throw any darts at her target.
The teacher began removing the target from the wall.

Underneath the target was a picture of Jesus.....
A complete hush fell over the as each student viewed the mangled picture of Jesus; holes and jagged marks covered His face and His eyes were pierced.

The teacher 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." Matthew 25:40
No other words were necessary; the tear-filled eyes of each student focused only on the picture of Christ.
