Ever wondered how to catch a monkey? It is known that if you place a bottle with a wide base and slim neck into the ground and fill it with nuts, you will catch one. How is this so? Well, the monkey will smell the nuts, stick his hand in the bottle, fill his grasp with nuts, and then try to pull his hand out. One dilemma, he was able to fit his hand in the bottle but now that it is filled with nuts it's too big to pull out. For some reason, when hunters or danger comes, the monkey doesn't let go of the peanuts. It is horrified but will not let go!
Is your hand stuck in a bottle right now? What is keeping you from turning away when danger or bad influences come. What are you holding on to that keeps you in the threshold of sin? Let go! Don't be a monkey. Run to God and he will give you more than you could ever need!
