Meaning In Life:The Study of Ecclesiastes
part 30

Ecclesiastes 9.10
Whatsoever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might: for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom in the grave, where you will go.

Most of the times today's verse is quoted -the last part is left off - many can agree with doing their best with whatever is given them - some call this making lemonade when you only have lemons in your life - another words - God gives all of us talents and He wants to use us - remember however He does not need us - HE does not need anyone - but chooses to use us His children.
As we go further in this verse - the point is that we will all die - we will leave this place -we have a limited time to leave our mark on this world - we pass through it so quickly - and once this short life is over -we cannot relive it - today is the day we must live -we cannot live in yesterday for it's gone - we cannot live in tomorrow for it's not yet here- we must live today - Jesus said we must work while it is light - this is the time before He returns that He wants us to spread the good news across the globe - while this is a scary time in many ways - we have confidence in Christ that HE will come at just the right time - we have hope to carry on - we have rights as the children of the King to do His work here on earth - much time is wasted this side of heaven -we must be serious about our Father's business - we must go when called - we must do as we are told and in the end honor our Lord and Savior!
This life is short - live it for JESUS!

BUILDING MOMENT: Every second matters, sings Matthew West -and it is so true -what are you doing with your seconds?

Because we have CHRIST - we have hope of a better day!

2.5.09 - Building on the WORD
WHEN YOU WORK FOR GOD IT HELPS TO KNOW THE BOSS!
