"How squirrrely are you?"

I detest squirrels that steal the seed I buy for my birds. I read about and even bought a bird feeder called "The Absolute," a weight-sensitive device. It's made by the Century Tool & Manufacturing Co. of Cherry Valley, Illinois and has a counterweight device that shuts the feeder door when anything heavier than a bird lights on the feeder. When it first came on the market, Sue Wells, director of the National Bird-Feeding Society, says she and others thought someone "had finally come up with the ultimate solution."

But reports have surfaced from places like my backyard, that squirrels have defeated this most ingenious effort by teaming up with one another. While one squirrel stands on the counterweight bar behind the feeder, thereby keeping the front door from shutting, the other squirrel stands on the roost and feeds. And then they switch places.

Like these squirrels, when you work with someone else, you accomplish a lot more than working alone. So invite God onto your team today as you listen to life and make a life, not just a living, and enjoy the rewards.
