Our little companions actually think we are the visitors not the owners.
These small creatures go about their day oblivious to our routine and frankly, could care less about us.
They are focused and persistent.
They have a goal and are determined to reach it.
Their leader has given them a task to follow and a path to walk.
Distractions are ignored. Obstacles are overcome without hesitation. Their life is tuned into following their leader’s fragrance. They know that straying from this special path given to them by their leader will mean danger, hardship, even death.
Ants, don’t ya love ‘em!
I've been watching these tiny black things travel along the grout line in the living room. We have called the “pest guy” multiple times. This morning I got out the flashlight and followed a couple of these little guys from our front bay window to a tiny hole in the chalking on the pantry door. A very long journey for such small insects. I watched how they greeted one another, passed on their leader’s fragrance as they moved by each other going to and fro. It is amazing how they find the scent of the leader ant that blazed the trail, in and out of the grout line, on slick tile, on the baseboard, up the wall and out the bottom of the window.
A marvelous example to us in following our LEADER!
Psalm 23!
