OMORANDIA 8:7

Do you ever feel like you have collected so many mistakes and disappointments that your life will forever be tainted by them? Is there such a thing as new life? Jesus offers a second chance to forget about the past and become a new person. This three-day reading plan will encourage you to look beyond your experiences and to a brighter future. 

Work gives you plenty of opportunities to be anxious. You might worry about getting it all done, about success vs failure, or about bosses and coworkers. None of these anxieties are surprises to God. They all find precedents – and hope – in the Bible.

God created us to find meaning in our lives. But we live in a broken world where we’re continually frustrated in our search. So, what’s the point of living life? This is the question the Teacher in Ecclesiastes is asking. At first, the message of this wisdom book seems to lead to despair, but in fact points to the hope of life found in God alone.

Written by an elderly King Solomon, Ecclesiastes reflects on a life of meaningless pursuits. Solomon writes that the world's pursuits, from wealth to self-indulgence, are vain and unfulfilling. Ecclesiastes determines that God and his presence make life fulfilling, and true wisdom is to fear God and keep his commandments (Ecclesiastes 12:13).
