At least we should learn from ants, why? First of all, ants never get tired spending their time for something worthless. They are diligent in collecting their food so they are not afraid to not having enough food. Everything has its own time. So when we have time to work, use it to the maximum and don\u2019t be lazy. Don\u2019t spend time on something worthless. Most of us without realizing it spend the time only to relax. As a result we miss the opportunities that God has given us. Oftentimes we postpone an opportunity or to make it worse we don\u2019t do it at all, and we lose the benefits or the best things for us. Therefore, we must manage our time wisely.<\/p>\n<p>Even though ants don\u2019t have a leader, but they diligently work hard. Similarly, even we don\u2019t have a leader we should do our tasks diligently and with full responsibility. Remember that God always watch what we do, and He will bless us when we persevere and diligently do our parts. Whoever sow in diligence, he will reap success. On the other hand, if we are not responsible in what we do, then we will not reap success. So if we want to have a prosperous life, do your best and complete the tasks with full responsibility. We also have to know when to work hard and when to enjoy the outcome of our hardwork. The most important thing is to do everything well.<\/p>\n<p>Ants are very wise in using time. In life, we also have to be able to use time wisely. Keep in mind that the available time is an opportunity for us to gain victory. As long as God gives us time to live, the opportunity to reach success is still open.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Thus, only wise people will receive blessings because lazy people will not get anything\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reading Verse: Leviticus 21:1-24 Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise!
