JANUARY 17-- BIBLE STORY SUMMARY
This week, we take a closer look at Proverbs 6:6-8. Think about the ant! Consider its ways and be wise! (NIrV). God created ants to take responsibility and work hard storing up for the winter months. We can look to them as an example, as we take responsibility and work hard.
That's why our Bottom Line this week is: Work hard.
God has created us to work, yet often we try to do whatever we can to avoid it. We pray that this simple bottom line will be a reminder for kids to take responsibility when they have a job to do. God can give them the strength they need to follow through and get the job done.

Share with each other what you think your "work" is.
Solomon says that a wise person doesn't need a lot of reminders to work hard and throw all their effort into a project. Instead, they get the reward of a job well done.
What do you think is your reward when you put good effort into your work?
Pray that you would find joy in putting your heart and soul into your work.
