Ants and Sluggards (Proverbs 6:6-11)
6Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider her ways and be wise!--7Which, having no chief, overseer, or ruler,
8Provides her food in the summer and gathers her supplies in the harvest.
9How long will you sleep, O sluggard? When will you arise out of your sleep?
10Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down and sleep--
11So will your poverty come like a robber or one who travels [with slowly but surely approaching steps] and your want like an armed man [making you helpless].

Lord willing an ant, but probably an ANTGARD!
Lord make me more diligent!

I would hope the ant. But more importantly, I believe this also refers to those preparing the way for the Lord. The harvest is plentiful, and the laborers are few. We need to get out and work!

From this verse, I would say an ANT.
We can only be in Heaven if we are His, and I am His all the way, and soon those of us that are His will be in Heaven with Him. And , like the ant, we are to be getting ready, being prepared to meet Jesus when He comes. Make sure your lamps of oil stay full, so you dont run out, Let your light shine for Jesus, and its time to stop giving all your light to those that want it, as you have to hold onto what you have, as one day you, we wont be able to get anymore.
Be ready to meet Jesus when He comes. God bless you.

I would be a slugant.
Sometimes I'm a little of both. This Is something I need to really work on,balance. I have a tendency to be somewhat extreme. God loves balance.
