Another pest!

Last night Jon went to the cupboard to eat one of the sweet rolls he had purchased the day before. The next thing I knew he was shrieking.
Now what, I wondered. Can't be a 'star' in the house. So what?
His lovely, as yet uneaten sweet rolls, were covered with a zillion black ants. Yuck! So out to the trash they had to go.
Then this morning I was reading in the book of Proverbs and came to this verse:
" Go to the ant you sluggard; consider her ways and be wise."
So I decided to look up a few facts about ants.
Except for the queen ant, they are workers who look for food, look after the young and defend the nest. When they find a good food source, they leave a trail of scent for others can find it.
Now, I know that the verse as talking about being busy and not lazy. But with the facts I just mentioned about ants, I see another parallel.
I , as God's child, go to Him for food each day. I then love to leave a trail so others can find it too. In fact, that is one of the purposes of this blog. So I will continue to heed King Solomon's advice to consider the ways of the ant.
