| PUNKY:
|
Hey, where were you last week, Patience?
|
| PERFECT:
|
Why? Oh nevermind, I know, we get to go to Junior Church.
|
| PUNKY:
|
I asked you first.
|
| PATIENCE:
|
All right. All right. I went to the National Quartet Convention
in Louisville, Kentucky.
|
| PUNKY:
|
Hey, so did I. Boy, they had some harmony in those quartets as they sang for Jesus.
|
| PATIENCE:
|
They sure did. You know what my favorite song is?
|
| PUNKY:
|
I'll Fly Away, o Glory, I'll Fly Away.
|
| PATIENCE:
|
How did you guess?
|
| PUNKY:
|
We're birds, Patience. And birds like to do what?
|
| PATIENCE:
|
Fly!
|
| PUNKY:
|
Precisely.
|
| FEE-FEE:
|
(Fancy Lady Puppet) Where are they! That insufferable
little mutt and that living hat rack. Why, I'll chop them up and feed them to
the lions at the zoo for what they did.
|
| PATIENCE:
|
That seems a little strong, Miss Fee-Fee. What did they do?
|
| PUNKY:
|
It must have been awful bad to feed them to the lions at the zoo.
|
| PATIENCE:
|
I don't know, Punky. Daniel was fed to the lions by
King Nebuchadnezzar because he chose to obey the Lord rather than man.
|
| FEE-FEE:
|
(Pops up) Oh, this is entirely different. I am their master
and all I did was ask them to steal ... uh, I mean, borrow Mr. Smith's radio.
|
| PUNKY:
|
Did Mr. Smith know you were going to borrow their radio?.
|
| FEE-FEE:
|
Well, no. But that's a small detail.
|
| PATIENCE:
|
And were you going to return it?
|
| FEE-FEE:
|
Why certainly. If it broke I'd return it! Enough of the
silly questions. If you find them, you need to turn them over to me (exit).
|
(Enter Mr. Moose and Mr. Dog)
|
| MR. DOG:
|
Is Miss Fee-Fee gone?
|
| MR. MOOSE:
|
I hope so! I'd would have ended up as a lion's burger at the zoo.
|
| MR. DOG:
|
Yeah. I'd hate being a happy meal for Mr. Lion. What will we
do? Maybe we should just take Mr. Smith's radio for Miss Fee-Fee.
|
| MR. MOOSE:
|
Unh-uhn. I remember what I learned in Sunday School. "Thou
shalt not steal."
|
| MR. DOG:
|
We'd just be borrowing it forever.
|
| PUNKY:
|
That's stealing, Mr. Dog, and God says we need to obey Him and not man.
|
| MR. MOOSE:
|
Does that include dogs?
|
| PATIENCE:
|
Yes; it does. You need to follow God, and trust in Him to protect
you. The Bible says in Proverbs 3:5, "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart;
lean not unto thine own understanding." You need to trust God and obey him.
|
| FEE-FEE:
|
Ha! There you are. Are you two ready to take Mr. Smith's radio
for me or is it the lions?
|
| MR. DOG:
|
Do I really have to choose?
|
| MR. MOOSE:
|
(Pushes Mr. Dog) We need to do what God wants us to do.
|
| MR. DOG:
|
Oh All right. Miss Fee-Fee, we must follow God no matter the results.
|
| FEE-FEE:
|
Why I never! Come along. The lions are hungry. (Pushes
Mr. Moose and Mr. Dog off and exits)
|
| PUNKY:
|
Wow! Dog burgers and Moose burgers, a double treat for the lions.
|
| PATIENCE:
|
Maybe not. God protected Daniel because he chose to follow Him.
|
| PATIENCE:
|
Well, Punky, if you had shared them maybe you'd have gotten even more.
|
| PUNKY:
|
What do you mean, Perfect?
|
| PUNKY:
|
Really?
|
| PATIENCE:
|
Yes; Daniel trusted God for his protection and God never let him
down. That's what we'll learn about in junior church today.
|
| PUNKY:
|
Well, let's get going. I need to hear this.
|
| PATIENCE:
|
Let's fly away!
