What's the Point? (A Study in Ecclesiastes: Part 1)નમૂનો

Weariness. According to Q, this is the result of all our toil in life. We get up at the same time each day, go to work, come home, eat dinner, watch TV and go to bed. Only to get up again the next day and do it all again! We finish the laundry only to have to start it all over again! The grass needs cut…again. The bills need to be paid…again. We run on the treadmill of life and then wake up one day to find that we haven’t really gone anywhere. And yet, we are so tired. We need something to cut through the meaninglessness and give us hope and a desire for the future.

Ask Yourself: How have you experienced the weariness in life?

Pause to Pray: Tell God about how the routine of life feels weary. He hears, and He cares!

Take the Next Step: Ask people in your life about the things that give them hope and purpose in life. Listen carefully- do they find hope in temporary or eternal things? Invite someone who has found lasting hope for a cup of coffee and ask them about their hope.
