Daily Thought
When the spies that Moses sent returned from their reconnaissance of the Land of
Canaan, they included in their report these words:
“We felt like ants before them,
and so we were in their eyes.”
Because they felt like ants in their own eyes,
therefore, others saw them as ants as well.
