Consider this - Ask the Animals

: READ GENESIS 12-14. “CONSIDER. The Bible tells us: “Ask the animals, and they will instruct you; ask the birds of the sky, and they will tell you. Or speak to the earth, and it will instruct you” (Job 12:7-8). Do you understand what the Holy Spirit inspired Job to share? God’s creatures are marvelous teachers. One of my favorite authors is Robert J. Morgan. I first became acquainted with his writings when we resided in Murfreesboro in Middle Tennessee. His ability to communicate attracted my attention and I became an avid follower. Remember, I do not have a degree from a Bible college or seminary. However, I have availed myself with men, such as Robert Morgan, whom God has gifted to unpack the Word. How much can we profit from God’s creation? Let Dr. Morgan teach us as we ask the animals.
“As a boy I visited Hoover Dam. It’s one of the most breathtaking construction projects of the 20th century, and I was frightened by its massive size. But long before anyone thought of building dams and creating lakes, do you know who was doing it? Beavers! They have huge, orange front teeth that can cut through a tree. Why orange? The teeth are reinforced with iron to make them strong enough for gnawing.
Beavers know how to fashion sticks into a dam that can last for hundreds of years. These beaver dams contain different rooms for eating and for nesting, and they have underwater entrances. They are marvels of engineering.” ASK THE ANIMALS! Would you like to learn more? We will continue this thought tomorrow. What a mighty God we serve!
