Go to the ant O sluggard and consider her ways and be wise. Proverbs 6:6 ESV
Take a look at the ant
Jesus said to me
But it was tough when
He wouldn’t sit still
He was working with all his might to build
His tiny but growing ant hill
And it was hard to pick out just one because
They ran together
All through the day
And each helped his brother Without making a fuss
Or insisting on having his way
One by one they piled
Those grains of sand
And worked with such passion and glee
As they showed off the beauty of God's design
To us when we look to see!

A Little Firefly
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Matthew 5:15 KJV
One of my favorite old time songs from church is “This Little Light of Mine. It reminds me of a night when our boys were small, and we lived in a tiny second floor apartment. One night my wife thought she heard a sound coming from the children’s room. Since our flashlight was buried somewhere in a kitchen drawer, she just carefully worked her way through the dark towards their door. I half woke up as she got out of bed, but when I heard her voice suddenly pierce the night with “Oh! Oh!” she had my undivided attention.
“What’s going on?” I shouted sitting bolt upright ready to rush to her rescue. By this time though the startled little scream had been replaced by peals of laughter. “You wouldn’t believe it!” Nancy said as she quickly slipped back into our bedroom. “I was in the right middle of the kitchen when a firefly lit up no more than an inch in front of by nose!” That tiny bug had everyone’s attention, not because of how impressive the candlepower of his light, but because he chose the darkest night to shine it.
With all the problems going on in the world around us we can easily get discouraged and feel like our little light won’t make much of a difference. But it just may be that God has called you to give just a little flash of His love to someone on the darkest night of their life!
Ducks and Eagles


Ducks and Eagles Way up in the sky Eagle soars all alone Far from the mud below Flying high in the blue He thinks it is true That he’s the best bird in the show While down at the farm Ducky waddles along With his tribe by the edge of the stream Leading them on To the cool water’s edge Where their dirty feet Can be washed clean Now that I your Lord and Teacher have washed your feet, you should also wash one another’s feet John 13:14 NIV Ducks and Eagles by Peter Caligiuri Copyright 2021 all rights reserved
