Meaningless Life?


Meditate.
And this is not all that is meaningless in our world. In this life, good people are often treated as though they were wicked, and wicked people are often treated as though they were good. This is so meaningless! So I recommend having fun, because there is nothing better for people in this world than to eat, drink, and enjoy life. That way they will experience some happiness along with all the hard work God gives them under the sun. In my search for wisdom and in my observation of people's burdens here on earth, I discovered that there is ceaseless activity, day and night. I realized that no one can discover everything God is doing under the sun. Not even the wisest people discover everything, no matter what they claim. Ecclesiastes 8:14-17

Morning Sunrise
What do you  plan to do today...for the Lord?
Is life meaningless? No one can discover everything God is doing under the sun.
Think about that. What gives your life meaning? The ceaseless activity? Are you finding happiness along with all the hard work? What choices do you make when you get up every day that focuses your day of something of value? Do you try to do something for someone each day to show that you care…a simple back rub, a smile, hug or phone call? How can you be the hands and feet, eyes and ears of God today?

Prayer ~ Lord God I am in awe of Your creation and plan for mankind and so glad that I am part of the body of the church. “The human body has many parts, but the many parts make up one whole body. So it is with the body of Christ. Some of us are Jews, some are Gentiles, some are slaves, and some are free. But we have all been baptized into one body by one Spirit, and we all share the same Spirit.” 1 Corinthians 12:12-13.

Verses of Salvation ~ …"Then who in the world can be saved?" they (the disciples) asked. Jesus looked at them intently and said, "Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible." Matthew 19:25-26

We can’t “save” ourselves with good works…only Jesus can “save” us. Seek Him while there is still time. Salvation will give your life meaning.
