Go to the ant, you slacker!
Observe its ways and become wise.
Without leader, administrator, or ruler,
it prepares its provisions in summer;
it gathers its food during harvest.
How long will you stay in bed, you slacker?
When will you get up from your sleep?
Ouch! Do you wait for someone to tell you what to do, or do you get after it? Do you wait for someone to notice what you’re doing or you quit? Our motivation for what we do should be centered in our identity in Christ and our desire to please our Lord. I know it’s hard to get up early, but do it anyway. You’ll be glad you did.
