Why "The Ant Hill"?

Welcome to my blog! This is my first step into the blogging world.

I'm sure, by now, you are wondering why I named my blog, The Ant Hill.

As I was contemplating names, a memory from Camp Northfield came to my mind which inspired such a name. The director had assigned the counselors an assignment that at the time I thought was pretty silly. He told us to watch an ant hill for about twenty minutes. We were supposed to do this probably about three different times.

As I observed a little ant hill at a sunny corner of camp, my mind drifted into thinking about what an big God I have. This little ant hill seemed much like how my life must look like to God. But yet, God knows everything about me! I'm just one person, of many, yet God knows every single detail of my life, even ones that I am not aware of yet.

So, as I post different things about my life, I am reminded I am like that little ant hill I watched at summer camp.

Psalm 139:1-3
O LORD, you have searched me and known me! You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar. You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways. Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, O LORD, you know it altogether.
