“Small Yet Wise”
Blessings folk!
Another “four” statement…
Pro 30:24-28
Four things on earth are small,
but they are exceedingly wise:
the ants are a people not strong,
yet they provide their food in the summer;
the rock badgers are a people not mighty,
yet they make their homes in the cliffs;
the locusts have no king,
yet all of them march in rank;
the lizard you can take in your hands,
yet it is in kings’ palaces.
ESV
Small, yet exceedingly wise.
Ants
- a “people” not strong, yet
- they provide their food in the summer.
- they prepare
- they harvest
- they work
Rock badgers
- not a “mighty people”, yet…
- they live securely ensconced in homes in the cliffs
Locusts
- have no king, yet…
- they march in rank, in order, in plan
Lizard
- you can capture in your hands yet…
- it lives wherever it desires…kings’ palaces, etc.
May we learn from creation.
May we hear the Lord.
Though small, Believers are mighty/wise!
