Strength in Summer - Kayla's Korner

Proverbs 30:25

“Ants are creatures of little strength,
    yet they store up their food in the summer;”

 

I want you to take a minute and think of a creature that is weak. For me, I think of an ant. Probably because they are so small and I’m a lot bigger than they are. According to pest word for kids, “Ants can lift 20 times its own body weight” This basically means, if a second grader was as strong as an ant, they could lift a car! I don’t know about you, but if I saw a second grader lifting a car, I would be both amazed and probably confused. My point is, Ants are wise, and we think that they are the weakest creatures, when they have more wisdom than most of us. Ants work hard during the warm months so that they can save most of their food for the colder months. We should be reading our Bibles, and praying daily, building our relationship with God. Just coming to church and being present isn’t enough. You have to put in the work! You have to build up your strength in Christ and be prepared.
