EGGS

This photo is in someone's garden. These people have been selling Eggs for several years. They are lovely eggs and very good value. They have an honesty box for people to put the money in. Sadly people were stealing the eggs, so they put up a security camera. Dishonest people then started putting their hands over the box so it appeared to the camera that they were indeed paying for the eggs. Last summer they took the decision to stop selling the eggs as they were loosing too much money. This is understandable, even though we were deeply saddened by this choice we knew that it was the sensible thing for them do. Equally we were overjoyed to find that they have decided to resume selling again. We don't know these people very well, we say hello and exchange pleasantries if we see them when we go to buy their eggs. What a wonderful lesson in forgiveness that they are now trading again. I don't know if these people are Christians but I do know that by giving their neighbours and the tourists another chance they are behaving in a very God-like way.
