Nature Notes
Have you ever seen a
squirrel? Did you know that there is another type of squirrel that can glide
through the air? They are called squirrel gliders.
Squirrel gliders are tiny,
little squirrels who live in trees.
They eat pollen and nectar
from flowering plants, fruit, insects and the sap of eucalyptus trees.
Whenever they feel
threatened, whenever they feel in trouble, they will jump from tree to tree,
opening their webbed legs and gliding to the safety of another tree.
How simple, ehe?

Spiritual Connection
When we are in trouble, you
and I have a simple solution, too. When we need help, all we need to do is
pray. When we pray to Jesus for help, Satan must leave us. When we pray to Jesus for help, Jesus saves us
from trouble, temptations and sin.
When you feel angry; pray.
Jesus will save you from your anger.
When you feel sad; pray.
Jesus will save you from your sadness.
When you feel scared; pray.
Jesus will save you from your fear.
When you don’t want to be
obedient; pray. Jesus will help you obey.
When you don’t want to
listen; pray. Jesus will help you listen.

Closure
What a wonderful God we
have! He gave the squirrel glider the ability to escape danger and trouble by
simply jumping and gliding to safety.
This same God has given us
the ability to pray. All we have to do is ask and He will deliver us; He will
save us; He will take care of us.
