Consider These Things and be Wise

"There be four things which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise:

 The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer;

 The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks;

 The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands;

 The spider taketh hold with her hands, and is in kings' palaces.

 There be three things which go well, yea, four are comely in going:

 A lion which is strongest among beasts, and turneth not away for any;

 A greyhound; an he goat also; and a king, against whom there is no rising up."

     - Proverbs 30:24-30

Dear Friends,

We can gain wisdom from all of God's creation if we would pause and consider.  Proverbs 30 outlines four things which are little upon the earth but very wise.

Jesus tells us in St. Luke 12:27-28: 

 "Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

 If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith?"  

Consider these things and be wise.

in Christ,
