The Tale of Two Pennies

So, today in SS we did a little object lesson by putting pennies in vinegar and salt to clean them, with the parallel of God cleaning our hearts from sin by the work of Jesus on the cross. The one on the left is the year I was born. The one on the right is the year Dyna Girl was born. The penny on the left was cleaned; prior to cleaning I couldn't even tell what year it was. I guess my body is kind of like that penny, beat up, banged up, and a lot of sin; hopefully the blood of Jesus will make my actual heart cleaner than this penny :-)
