The Dtayls of Life

It has occurred to me, how big the little details can be. I talked with a friend the other day about a time when I was a little "high" on life, in a life long gone, I thought to climb a tree. Crazy thing, while in the tree, I saw 2 columns of ants. 1 column was heading up the tree carrying something, the other column was heading down the tree I suppose to go get something to bring back. How many people get to see that? Although the circumstances of how I was able to witness this account may have been wrong, I am glad I did. While recalling this account in my life, I wonder how many small details like that we miss everyday. It was wonderful to see how organized and purposeful these ants were. They moved and functioned as a team for one common goal. We can all learn from the little details of life and better ourselves as we learn from them. God said it himself :

Proverbs 6:6
6 Take a lesson from the ants, you lazybones. Learn from their ways and become wise!
7 Though they have no prince or governor or ruler to make them work,
8 they labor hard all summer, gathering food for the winter.
9 But you, lazybones, how long will you sleep? When will you wake up?
10 A little extra sleep, a little more slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest—
11 then poverty will pounce on you like a bandit; scarcity will attack you like an armed robber.

God himself must be into the details of life to reference these small almost insignificant creatures and tell us to Take a lesson and learn from them.

Just something to consider.
