Even Squirrels Fall Out of Trees

Even Squirrels Fall Out of Trees

The other day my sister, Cheryl, was driving down a tree lined street in Charleston, South Carolina. She heard a 'thump' on the hood of her car, looked all around and saw a squirrel scurring off as fast as it could. This is very unusual isn't it? Squirrels are masters at climbing and moving about the tree tops. There are none better!

Still, these ariel 'experts' can lose their balance or footing and fall from the very trees that they are so adept at moving through. Perhaps it is bad judgement or poor eyesight, and down they come!

As my sister told me this story, I thought of all the experts in the world...experts on climate change, experts on evolution, experts on human life and the human condition. Could it be that sometimes they just demonstrate poor judgement, eyesight or balance? Maybe sometimes they just get it wrong? I think they do it more often than they would admit.

So, the next time you hear some expert on the radio, TV, or read of their ideas in the newspaper, remember...even squirrels fall out of trees!

"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."

Proverbs 3:5,6
