To Our Readers

When We Were kids, we probably all got into trouble now and then. Some mischief with a brother or sister. A baseball through a neighbor's window. Forgetting to do a homework assignment. Running through our mother's flower garden—for the fourteenth time.

Those were the "kids will be kids" Variety of troubles. And our parents were usually careful to make the punishment fit the "crime." We were sent to our room to "think about it." We had to pay for Mr. Wentworth's broken window and help him fix it. We had to replant the flower garden. And through it all, we learned important lessons.

But what happens when we're adults and confront some serious shortcoming in our character or some sin? Will God, out divine Parent, punish us? Does God, who is wholly good and-wise Love, send evil or hurt or even disease to straighten us out? How do we learn the lessons we need to learn?
