Find strength in Ants

"Lazy people should learn a lesson from the way ants live. They have no leader, cheif or ruler, but they store up their food during the summer, getting ready for the winter."
Proverbs 6: 6-7
The priest, during his homily, asked us if we knew that ants were mentioned in the Bible? And what more, people are told to learn from how the ants live. How more honoured that God never forgotten the ants, them being the smallest of creatures on earth, often being taken for granted, but now they have being imprinted in the Bible, and to be a model for humans! How more ironic this can be?
It's a reminder too that we humans, although created special via God, need to know that we can't be lazy and take God for granted. We need to take account of responsibility and live a life as how God wanted to be, for we are created in his image, so of course we need to mirror how his life should be.
