Creation Moments has often talked about the social activities of bees and we tend to think that all bees live together in large colonies or hives. In fact, not all of them do. Like people, bees can actually be found in a variety of social relationships, including those who live most of their lives alone.
Some female bees of a species that live underground build their homes next to another female. They often connect their separate underground homes with a tunnel so they can visit each other. Sometimes they even lay their eggs near each other and raise their young together. Often one female will babysit both sets of young while the other goes out for groceries.
The almost universal need for companionship among living things should tell us something about the One Who created them. Our need for companionship should tell us that this is something that our Creator values, too. In fact, the message throughout the Bible is that He made mankind so He would have someone to love.
Is He your Number One companion in your life? Do you know His love for you through His Son, Jesus Christ? Whether you don't know Him at all, or whether you would like to know Him better, most Christians can attest to the fact that He really does speak to you through the pages of the Bible.
Proverbs 17:17
"A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.”
Prayer: Dear Father, although You have made me for the purpose of having a loving relationship with You, I confess that at times I have withdrawn my love from You. Forgive me for Jesus' sake, and help me to make You my Number One companion. Amen.
