Weasel
The weasel, is perhaps the smallest carnivore, or meat eater. Though the weasel is not a large animal, it knows how to succeed by stealth, deceit, and viciousness. Adam named it ‘understanding the teaching of this age’.
It hunts and eats mice, voles, rabbits, birds, and eggs. It may dance before it’s cornered prey to calm it before killing with a single bite to the neck. This is like the person who doesn’t care who he hurts.
The weasel will steal the dens that other animals have dug, like the person who only takes from others, never building for himself.
They are territorial and may claim up to twenty acres of land as their own. This is more than two city blocks. Have you ever said “Mom, he’s in my space!” You were acting like the weasel.
They run with short jumps and stand up to spy out the territory. They are not focussed on what they are doing, but are only concerned about every one else.
The world teaches us to succeed at any cost, like the weasel. God teaches us to love. This love is shown by not being a weasel.
