Ecclesiastes 10:17

We move down the home stretch in our journey through this amazing little book of wisdom. In this chapter we'll look at a collection of proverbs and how they impact our lives as college students.

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).

In this 30-day devotional, you will learn the vital role of faith in a Christian's journey. When you are faced with doubts and uncertainties in life, make living by faith a priority, looking to God in your challenging moments. Living by faith is not taking a risk; it is a rest in God, trusting that with Him, nothing is impossible.
