The Word:

Meaning In Life: the study of Ecclesiastes
part 5

Ecclesiastes 1:18
...for in much wisdom is much grief; and he that increases in knowledge increases in sorrow...

Having great knowledge alone does not alone make someone great - The Word today says that in much wisdom there is much grief - sometimes I heard it said - the more you think you know -the less you really know -
Just knowing about something is not the same thing as actually knowing something - many people know about the Lord Jesus Christ - but that does not mean they know Him at all - with much wisdom can come much grief - if your whole goal is just to gain wisdom -you will be let down - and you will not find much meaning in life - this series is dedicated to showing you how to have meaning in your life - it all boils down to a personal intimate relationship with God the Father though Jesus the Son - its all about allowing God's Spirit to move you and mold you - its about letting go of what you want and following what God wants for your life - if we strive to find meaning apart from Jesus - we will be let down - many have tried to find true happiness in other places -some in great wealth - some in degree after degree or with a dream job - maybe its a relationship with someone that means the most to you - if you put anything above your relationship with Jesus - you will be let down - this is not to say when you follow Jesus that everything will go as planned - it will go as planned but not as we may have planned - wisdom alone is not enough to save anyone - it takes a relationship that will forever change your status in life - you will go from a slave to this world and its sin to a child of righteousness!

The Final Word:
To find meaning in life -LOOK TO JESUS~!
CHRIST should be our reason for living this life!

APART FROM JESUS THERE IS NO HOPE
