Ants!


you know how when we feel lazy, God ask us to "watch the ants!" and " stop making excuses"!!

"Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise. Without having any chief, officer, or ruler, she prepares her bread in summer and gathers her food in harvest." - Proverbs 6:6-8

"The ants are a people not strong, yet they provide their food in the summer." - Proverbs 30:25

Honestly i've never seen a stationary ant, if an ant is not moving its most probably dead! I wonder if they even ever sleep haha. And when we feel sluggardy or lazy what does God call us to do, to observe the ants. They are always working, they are always preparing, always taking any good opportunities that comes their way and whenever there is unattended food there they are ready marching, calling their other hommies to come collect the food! And they are so tiny yet together they work to carry something a hundred times their size, they communicate really well with each other and aren't selfish when it comes to sharing information.

The lazy person claims, "There's a lion on the road! Yes, I'm sure there's a lion out there!" - Proverbs 26:13

Excuses, aren't we good at making them. too tired, too hungry, too bored, too difficult, too scary. Or the "what if's?!".." what if i _______?! i can't do it!". Enough of all those already, whatever you have got to do, Do it! :) as Simple as that. 

Lets get out there and be ants !

do have a restful weekend though :)
