So I commended pleasure, for there is nothing good for a man under the sun except to eat and to drink and to be merry, and this will stand by him in his toils throughout the days of his life which God has given him under the sun. When I gave my heart to know wisdom and to see the task which has been done on the earth (even though one should never sleep day or night), and I saw every work of God, I concluded that man cannot discover the work which has been done under the sun. Even though man should seek laboriously, he will not discover; and though the wise man should say, “I know,” he cannot discover.

5 Days
Better Together is a 5-day marriage devotional that shares the joy of doing life together and using your gifts to serve one another. We pray you are inspired to spend more time loving, encouraging and enjoying your spouse!
The Book of Ecclesiastes is about accepting a proper perspective of reality. Only then can we make effective decisions about who we trust and how we live. Yellow Balloons unpacks the message of Ecclesiastes in a five-day devotional. We pray it challenges and encourages you.
Ecclesiastes is frequently described as pessimistic, but after these 5 days, you’ll see it as one of the most encouraging books of the Bible. Solomon basically takes the filter off the world, exposing its relentless cycle of empty promises, compared to the eternal hope God freely gives us.
The kids are melting down, life keeps throwing curveballs, and you are simply overwhelmed. When family life is harder to cope with, God offers strength, compassion, and tender mercy. This 5-day devotional teaches parents how to cope with the hard things in life by putting on the armor of God, so kids, in turn, can learn by example to deal with emotions in a healthy way.
