Wine or whine? Where are you headed? Ecclesiastes 2:2,3

Good morning all! God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!
    Ecclesiastes 2:2 & 3  Solomon said what good is laughter? What good does it do to seek pleasure?  Verse 3, please read it, and does this not sound like people today?  "After much thought, I decided to cheer myself with wine. And while still seeking wisdom, I clutched at foolishness.  In this way, I tried to experience the ony happiness most people find during their brief life in this world."
  Read that again, then can you say WOW in all caps!?!?!  Is this not what our world is becoming like today?  Physical and emotional pleasure - at all costs.  Alcohol, drugs, physical pleasures - that is the life! Life is short, enjoy it however you want.  HUH?  I don't believe that is what God says, and that is not what Solomon is telling us.
     So often we are as a dog chasing its tail - round and round.  And, if the dog does catch his tail - what does this availeth him .....NOTHING!   Where is your life?  Chasing your tail, going in circles, moving nowhere; OR, are you walking the path of JESUS, and spreading seeds all along as you go?
    If you listen to the world - Wine, Women and Song is the way to go.  Yes, a path straight to hell. However, God-Obedience-Jesus' Sacrifice and following Jesus's steps is a path straight to eternal life.
    So, what in heavens name are you doing for the Kingdom of God?  Put away the worldly things, for they will pass away, go spiritual, it lasts forever.  The only way to live is in a life of Christ.  Do others see Christ in you?  Love you all.
    In Christ's Love and Grace
