Jan. 25 - Serpent - Ant

 

Today slips between your fingers like sand yet; another day comes tomorrow and again and again for this is assured. Find peace for you will always be.

Be at peace.

As the coiled serpent wraps around itself again and again it’s touching, knowing, feeling its place around and around seemingly forever.

The reptile generates no warmth but finds it in another. The sun, a rock, a heated space anything warm he may discover.

And as we spin around our time we look for just one thing, the warmth and comfort of the love that only Spirit brings.

The serpent wraps around a rock, we wrap around our thoughts and in the end the warmth we feel will never be forgot. It’s always there to comfort you as steady as the sun, feel its coils wrapping you up around and around again.

Grow to the sun

Grow to the light

Let your thoughts raise you up!

Don’t fear the cold which inspires your growth.

But welcome the warm feeling that supports it.

An ant is a silly little creature, at least it may seem that way.

Incidental to our life each and every day.

Yet an intrical part upon the earth the ant’s role is very big.

We could look into the science book and an explanation it would give.

But can we see the gift that lies in a creature O so small.

It goes about its daily life like it was 10 feet tall.

With no concern for nothing but its own mission upon this earth.

What does it care if we all think it has but little worth?

If you go up a thousand feet or more into the sky above

We would be as small as ants but our hearts are filled with love.

Don’t sell it short this gift you bring for you are much more than ant

You make a difference to this world that other creatures simply can’t.

We are not just marching to natures bidding but creating on our own.

It’s this that makes us humans upon this earth stand alone.

Love the ant

But love yourself much more

And as a lover love other people.

For humankind is who’s in charge.

We are the paint upon the steeple.
