Satisfied? Which world are you walking in? Ecclesiastes 1

Good morning everyone! God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!
   So, what is happening in your life now?  Did you think about the premium?  Have you paid your premium?  Just asking Jesus to come into your heart?
   Please take a moment to listen to Ecclesiastes 1:1-18 (only 2:21 minutes) as you read the scriptures of Ecclesiastes 1.  Here, you will find the author, Solomon, referred to himself as the teacher, or leader of the assembly. He was gathering people to hear a message and gathering wise sayings (proverbs).
     Solomon, one person in the Bible who had everything (wisdom, power, riches, honor, reputation, God's favor), is the one who discussed the ultimate emptiness of all that this world has to offer.  His purpose in this book is to make people realize that their confidence in their own efforts, abilities, and righteousness was meaningless.  Instead, their commitment to God is the only reason for living.
    Solomon was nearing the end of his life and was reflecting back on all he had done.  Solomon saw all  he had achieved, and realized that in this world we will never be satisfied, all we pursue will become meaningless.  What meaning is there is our accomplishments apart from God?
   The wisdom and knowledge we get from God will grant us peace and give us meaning.  Apart from God what are we?  Apart from God we are only creatures bound for an eternal hell.  Where are you today friend?  One foot in the world and one foot in God's kingdom.  You cannot serve two masters.
     As Solomon states in verse seven, "rivers run into the sea, but the sea is never full. Then the water returns to the rivers and flows out again to the sea."  Do you ever feel this way?  It is time, my friend, to take a big drink of the "living water" and walk as the teacher, Jesus. Turn it all over, get both feet in the spiritual world with Jesus. Life eternal. Love you all.
    In Christ's Love and Grace
