Chicken

Davey is calling for Goliath to come for lunch. Davey can’t find Goliath because Goliath fell into the pond. Goliath got called “chicken” by a collie! Sally and her little friends pulled flowers from the neighbor’s yard because her friends were doing it even though she knew it wasn’t right. Even Dad got into trouble because he “followed” the leader instead of doing what he knew was correct while driving home. That evening at dinner, Dad reminds the children that we shouldn’t be a follower but to think about our actions. We must remember to always do what we know is right! The next day, Davey and his friends decide to play a game of “Follow the Leader.” As they are playing the game, they decide to go over to see the new construction site. The site is not a place to play. There are danger signs everywhere! If you don’t follow the leader you are “chicken”. The boys begin to play on the pulley wench on the work site. It is a very dangerous game the boys are playing. Once the boys get to the second floor, Cisco tells Davey and the other to swing from one side to the building to the other. Once the other boys get to the other side, Davey is the last to go over. So, the boys call Davey chicken. Davey goes ahead and swings over and falls off the second floor balcony. Once Davey arrives at the hospital, the Pastor visits Davey. The Pastor comforts Davey. Davey realizes that he let Goliath down by his actions. Everyone was so concerned about Davey being hurt that they forgot that Goliath was left on the second floor of the construction site building. The Pastor went to help Goliath down. God will help us to remember to do what is right!
