The Rabbit

Listen from:
No doubt most of my young readers have been much ierested in little rabbits, and have watched their funny antics, and taken great delight in feeding them.
Here in our picture we see a trap laid for the little creature, and he is just about to go into it.
May we remember that Satan has traps for our feet, to catch us and lead us into sin, but he does that because he is an enemy of God, and wants to spoil all of God’s creation. So what he does is to destroy.
If that little rabbit only knew that it was a trap he was about to enter, he would not go in, but he does not know it, and he is enticed by the food that is put in sight. And that is the way that Satan tries to do; he puts something attractive before people to lead them on and on, till he gets them into that which will Dear had results.
The way to avoid Satan’s snares or traps is, to fear to displease the Lord, as the Scriptures give us,
“THE FEAR OF THE LORD IS A FOUNTAIN OF LIFE, TO DEPART FROM THE SNARES OF DEATH.” Prov. 14:2727The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death. (Proverbs 14:27).
