DAY 23 OF 23

Wisdom from Little Creatures

Proverbs 1:5

Let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance.

Agur, the writer of this Proverb, listed four little creatures that God created and how much wisdom can be learned from each of them.

Ants are very tiny and weak. They can be crushed with a single toe of a human. In summer, they work diligently to accumulate as much food as possible so that during winter they won't be starving. Let’s be hardworking and diligent. 

The rock badgers are not strong and powerful yet they know how to live in the rocks and survive harsh conditions. Hide yourself wisely when there is threat or danger and avoid sins. 

A lizard is small and can be easily caught, yet, it is able to sneak into the kings’ palaces which are heavily guarded by men. Be persistent and persevere like a lizard.  even when there is no one who supervises you.

A lizard is small and can be easily caught, yet, it is able to sneak into the kings’ palaces which are heavily guarded by men. Be persistent and perseverant like a lizard. 

Prayer

Dear God, I want to be diligent like ants, to hide myself wisely from sins like rock badgers, to be disciplined like locusts and to be persistent like lizards. Amen.
