7) It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,
8) yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.
Proverbs Club Commentary
Without a leader, ants store food
in one season to consume it in another.
One of my favorite proverbs is not from Proverbs:
Dig a well before you are thirsty.

15) Drink water from your own cistern,
running water from your own well.
Proverbs Club Commentary
Your spouse is your greatest earthly treasure.
You both have sworn,
before God and mankind,
to be one until death.
