Entomology Study Applied to Human Behavior
Summary
Author Michael A. Eleyinafe writes of his inspired journey to learn lifes lessons demonstrated by Gods smallest creatures-the ant. In his life as young boy on a farm in West Africa, Michael discovered the wonder of nature all about him and the particular joy in observing the huge varieties of ants. As he matured, Michael came to understand that God had led him to realize that as he studied the ant, remembered its industrious nature, he could learn to apply principles that would help him avoid physical and spiritual laziness. He knew these same insights would bless even the civilized Western world.

BOOK EXCERPT
The intriguing aspect of the ants searching for food is that it may travel a long distance (relevant to its size), whether during daylight or in the night, and it still knows its way back to its colony after it finds food. It is amazing how this creature navigates the distance it travels during its search. The ant always knows where to go. Perhaps this is due to its powerful sensory organ. Its feelers can sense food at a considerable distance from its colony. In the twenty-four hours of the day, the ant seems constantly on the move. It is almost as if the ant does not sleep because it recognizes one fact: There is food waiting to be claimed. It does not wait in its hole, hoping that the food will appear. It seeks, searches and puts in a tremendous effort until it finds food. But the ant does not consume its food immediately; it always brings its catch to its colony.
