Good Morning! Eccles 2:10-11 I denied myself nothing my eyes desired; I refused my heart no pleasure. My heart took delight in all my work,and this was the reward for all my labor. Yet when I had surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve, everything was meaningless,a chasing after the wind; nothing was gained under the sun.Now King Solomon was a man who was convinced that he knew how to find Happiness.And believe me He had the resorces to pursue this thought. He had Wealth,fame, power,lavish houses and a reputation for wisdom. All the things that we pursue in our lives today. I know I am guilty of this. I am pursuing all those things that Solomon had,on a daily basis. Maybe some of you can relate? Even though we know God and have excepted Jesus as our Savior,we still think if we had a little more? If we had a little more money,if we had a little better position at our job? If we were the type person that everybody liked and wanted to be around. That are lives would be even that much more meaningful and happiness would just surround us. But don't be misled! Just as Solomon found out,we will find out to, that all those worldly things that we think will make us just a little happier are just like chasing the wind. They are Meaningless! The only thing in life worth pursuing is a Relationship with God through His Son Jesus Christ. This is what will give your life meaning, and where you will find true happiness. We will still struggle with all that other stuff, because it is in our nature. But beginning today if you make Christ the center and foundation of your life. You won't believe how Meaningful your life can be. HABD!
