What a dangerous puss is in, just look at, her, she seems to be wondering if it will be safe for her to play with that crab. If the crab does not advance to her, she might think it will be all right to slap it with her paw, but if she does, we know the danger she is in, for if the crab gets hold of her with these claws, puss would yell terribly, for crabs have great strength in their claws and can pinch so hard that pass would not be able to get away.
It is evident that the best thing for Miss Puss to do, is to go on her way and leave Mr. Crab alone.
Do we not get a good lesson from this? Others may coax you to do things or go places, which you know would he wrong and displeasing to the Lord Jesus, but, dear children, do not listen to such, no matter how attractive and interesting it may seem. They may laugh at you and be very unkind to you, if you refuse to take part with them in their wrong doing, but listen what God says in His Word:
“ENTER NOT INTO THE PATH OF THE WICKED, AND GO NOT IN THE WAY OF EVIL MEN, AVOID IT, PASS NOT BY IT, TURN FROM IT, AND PASS AWAY.” Prov. 4:14, 1514Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men. 15Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away. (Proverbs 4:14‑15).
“My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.” Prov. 1:1010My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. (Proverbs 1:10).
“Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord (or the Bible): and in His law doth he meditate day and night.” Psa. 1:1, 21Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 2But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. (Psalm 1:1‑2).
