If you caught a magic goldfish, what would you ask for, and why is your list of unfulfilled wishes still so long? This sermon turns to a father’s advice to his son in Proverbs: go to the ant, watch her ways and become wise (Proverbs 6). It speaks bluntly about laziness as a kind of spiritual formation, about work that was never meant to be a curse, and about the selective laziness of very busy people. Listen, and ask what you are storing up for the winter that is bound to come.
