We cut down a dead tree and cut it up for firewood to heat our house and found this little lady bug who must have been hibernating in the wood. Praise God for creating all things. Mark 10:27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible. Here you can see a unique little caterpillar walking across a bible. The bible is God's Word and He created the caterpillar also. Maybe you have seen other kinds of caterpillars and can draw a picture of one?
What an amazing little creation and that's only one thing out of the millions of things God created! Let us give Him glory for it all. Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth. Psalm 57:5 Here are some insects we saw, amazing creations from an amazing God. God created all these (and many more) and He created you!
And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18:2-4 Good day to you all! We saw these ants and they made me think of a teaching for you. God's word, the Bible, teaches that children are to obey their parents.
Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Ephesians 6:1 So, how can these ants teach us a lesson on obeying our parents? They are going about doing what God created and commanded them to do, just like children are to obey the commands of their parents. We also see that ants are not lazy, they are busy about their works. Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest. Proverbs 6:6-8 Let me explain that a bit for you so you can understand. It means that we are not to be lazy and we should learn from the ants how they keep busy. They don't even have someone to guide or lead them by instructing them on what to do (like you have parents who do that for you), and they keep working hard storing up their foods. That is a good example for us don't you think? Remember this, when your parents give you instructions on chores you need to be doing as part of the household, you need to obey (because God said so) and be serious about doing them. This is pleasing to God. It's summer time and the bees that God made are busy working on all the flowers. You can see how all the bees are doing just what God created them to do. Think about that as your parents ask to do things, you should too, be like the bees and be busy doing what you are supposed to be doing. Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. Colossians 3:20 And here are a couple insects:-) And a little spider. |

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit,
after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
(Colossians 2:8)
