THE ANT…THAT’S SOMETHING


Proverbs 6:6

“Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:” 


Let me start by saying that ants are not my favorite insect.  

I am an admirer of butterflies.


The Bible does not specifically mention butterflies.

However, studying their metamorphosis 

mirrors our new birth in Christ.


The ant however, that’s something.

We are told to 

consider her ways and be wise.v6


Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,v7

Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest v8 


The ant…that’s something.

God uses this small creature to teach life lessons.


Small things matter. 

Every creature has significance.

The ant lives and thrives all over the world.

Ants are adaptable.

They work together. 

They collaborate.

They show up. 


Ants are not deterred from doing what they need to do whether we like it or not.

They don’t have an “ant boss.”

They are trusted by God to perform their duties in the way it was ordained.


The ant…that’s something.

They are referred to as strong and mighty.

Let us consider their ways.


Be bold.

Adaptable.

Do the job God has assigned.

Work together.

Collaborate.


‘Tis the season to get busy serving the Lord.


God bless.

In Christ,

My, My, My

  Luke 1:46b “My soul doth magnify the Lord,” My, my, my Such were my thoughts this morning as I looked out of my window at the sunrise. The Lord in His Majestic power has ordered another day. Waking up with the ability to see, to hear, and to speak. Graced with mercy to walk and talk. The Lord continues to bless and to keep. I did not wake up without aches and pains. Carefree and without challenges is not an entry on my schedule. Yet, my soul doth magnify the Lord. The Lord has given me another day to live another opportunity to serve. My, my, my.  God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie

Just a Moment

  1 Corinthians 15:52   “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.” A moment. Just a minute. Things happen. Situations change. Here one minute and gone the next.  So the saying goes. Moments. They mater. While we have time… Take a second. Press pause. Stop.  Consider. Right now.  This moment. Counts…⏰ God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie

I’ll Go With You

  Isaiah 41:10   “Fear thou not; for I  am  with thee: be not dismayed; for I  am  thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” “Jesus said if you go I’ll go with you.” Butterflies in my stomach  A racing heart  I do not want to attend the meeting  I wish I could cancel the appointment  I don’t want to talk about it Over “it” I don’t think I can do this  BUT GOD He reminds me that of course, I cannot accomplish even the most mundane tasks on my own  He assures me day by day that He is with me  He builds me up He orders my steps  He speaks peace to my soul  He renews my heart  Do not be afraid  You belong to Me I’ve got you I am holding you in My mighty hands  Go! I will go with you. God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie
