Share the Faith
The child says to his father, But I dont want to share my toys with them!
The father asks, Why do you not want to share your toy?
Because it is mine! the child answers.
The father responds, Son, I gave this toy to you because I love you, but I love other children as well. I gave you my love as an example of how to love other people as well, especially your brothers and sisters. Sharing is a way to show your love to both myself and to others. Do you love me?
Yes.
If you love me, then you will also love others, and if you love others, you will share with them the gift that I have given to you.
The child reluctantly shares his toy, but as they continue to share the toy among themselves, the child finds that he enjoys his toy even more when he shares it with others.
