A LESSON FROM GEESE : 

A LESSON FROM GEESE

Have you ever wondered why migrating geese fly in a V formation? : 

Have you ever wondered why migrating geese fly in a V formation? As with most animal behavior, there is a good reason why God included it in their instincts.

As each bird flaps its wings, it creates uplift for the bird following. : 

As each bird flaps its wings, it creates uplift for the bird following. In a V formation, the whole flock adds at least 71% more flying range than if each bird flew alone.

Slide 4: 

…and quickly gets back into formation. Whenever a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to fly alone…

Slide 5: 

… people who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going quicker and easier than those who try to go it alone. Like geese…

Slide 6: 

When a goose gets tired, it rotates to the back of the formation and another goose flies at the point position.

Slide 7: 

If people had as much sense as geese, they would realize that ultimately their success depends on working as a TEAM, taking turns doing the hard tasks, and sharing the lead.

Slide 8: 

It is important that our “honking from behind” be encouraging. Otherwise it’s just… well, noise. Geese in the rear of the formation honk to encourage those in front to up their speed.

Slide 9: 

They stay with the unhealthy member of the flock until it is either able to fly again or dies. When a goose gets sick or wounded, two other geese drop out of formation and follow it down to help and provide protection.

Slide 10: 

Then they launch out again with another passing flock or try to catch up with their own. We should be so sacrificial, that we are worthy of such friends in our time of need.

Slide 11: 

You Don’t Have to be a Scientist… … To learn from God’s marvelous creation; you only need to stop long enough to observe and let him reveal his wonders to you.

“Ask the beasts, and they will teach you; and the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you; and the fish of the sea will explain to you. : 

“Ask the beasts, and they will teach you; and the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you; and the fish of the sea will explain to you. - JOB 12:7-9 Who among all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this?”

Slide 13: 

Someone “ASKED” the Geese… … And They Answered

Slide 14:
