If you’ve walked on this here terra firma for more than just a tiny little bit, you’ve heard the story of chicken Little. And you get the gist of it. Right?
I saw this description of what Chicken Little means:
An article said that bird character “has become almost synonymous with alarmism, with the term being used to describe people who needlessly stoke fear among people.”
And that’s because Chicken Little ran to tell the king that the sky is falling. Along the way she told Henny Penny, Goosey Loosey, Ducky Lucky, Turkey Lurkey, and others. And she said she had first-hand evidence that it was gonna happen.
These days, in real life (or what passes for it on social media platforms), there are more Chicken Littles then you can shake a…well…dead chicken at. At. just about any hour of any given day somebody’s running around telling anyone who’ll listen that we’re all gonna burn up here on planet Earth. Or that we’re gonna run out of our natural resources. Or something similar to those notions.
When you choose to buy into that kind of thinking, you end up weak, hateful, and unable to think clearly. I don’t wanna end up that way. It’s the total opposite of what God is willing to give you. Paul described it like this: “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”
I urge you to take that as the gospel truth and let it guide your day. And definitely don’t be…
Chicken Little
Chicken little, chicken little,
That old, darn sky just won’t fall.
But I guess that doesn’t matter
Long as they can fool us all
Into thinking that the climate
Is an enemy we’ve made
Just by breathing and by living.
It’s a heat wave masquerade.
But discerners don’t believe it.
Yes, we know where Truth is found.
And we know the sky will not fall
And the Earth will spin around
For as long as God determines.
He has made that point quite clear.
So, go spout your hoaxes elsewhere.
Earth will still be fine next year! © 2023
