Feeling Lazy?

I observed this ant on this bush at the SABC campus, day light had quite faded off, yet this chap was working, collecting his food. It reminded me of what King Solomon wrote in the Bible (Proverbs):
 
Go to the ant, you sluggard;
observe its ways and be wise!
It has no commander,
overseer, or ruler,
yet it prepares its food in the summer;
it gathers at the harvest what it will eat.
How long, you sluggard, will you lie there?
When will you rise from your sleep?
A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to relax,
and your poverty will come like a robber,
and your need like an armed man.

and again in the Book of Proverbs, the writer tells us that 

Ants are creatures with little strength,
but they prepare their food in the summer;

Keep Working!
