How the Proud Frog Fell to His Death In a certain pond lived two wild ducks and a frog—the best of friends. All day long they played together. When the hot summer came, the pond began to dry up. Soon there was so little water that they realized they would have to move. Now the ducks could easily fly to another pond, but what about their friend, the frog? Finally it was decided that the ducks would put the two ends of a stick in their bills. Then the frog could hang onto the middle of the stick with his mouth, and the ducks would fly him to another pond. As they were flying low, a farmer in his field looked up; and, when he saw the strange formation, he said, “Well, isn’t that a clever idea! I wonder who thought of that?” The frog opened his big mouth and said, “I did!” Then down he fell to his death. The Bible warns us, “Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall” (Prov.16:18).
