Ecclesiastes 5:16,17 Work like the wind for what?

Good morning everyone! God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!

Ecclesiastes 5:16 "And this also is a sore evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that hath laboured for the wind?KJV

Life Application 5:16 "And this, too, is a very serous problem. People leave this world no better off than when they came. All their hard work is for nothing-like working for the wind."

When you work for the wind, all you get is a whirlwind. What good is all this work, profit, effort, toil and sweat when you get nothing? All the days are spent in darkness, anger, and sickness. But for what?

Verse 17 tells us that they work under a cloud all their lives - frustrated, discouraged, and angry. KJV 17 "All his days also he eateth in darkness and he hath much sorrow and wrath with his sickness."

How do we overcome this? Why, then should I toil and struggle for gain? For what purpose. Step back, call upon God, Jesus to help you through. God will send his Holy Spirit to guide thy steps. Look up for what you are about to inherit. Where are you today? Working for material goods, or riches in heaven? Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace
