When You Only Look Around
While Ecclesiastes is one of the 'older' books in the Bible, it might also be the most modern. In the opening chapter, the Teacher reminds us that life seems pointless when we look for meaning around us and not above us.

Ecclesiastes 1:12-18
How can a man like Solomon who has everything 'under the sun' see life as meaningless? I think Solomon is speaking to the American Church; could it be that we too find life meaningless because we' have placed more value on chasing the American Dream instead of living life in the Kingdom of God? Join Pastor Derwin a few minutes into his message as he passionately tries to persuade the church to live in the Son of God instead of 'under the sun'.

The End of the Matter
We don’t like to think about God as being someone that we should be afraid of. We would much rather think of God as a kindly grandfather who gives presents but never disciplines. King Solomon concludes his words by reminding us that we are all accountable to God. Someday we will all stand before Him and give an account for our actions. Because of this we should fear His discipline and judgment and obey His commands. These words can be painful to hear, but Solomon says that wise words are often painful but they are the poking and prodding from a good Shepherd who is trying to guide His foolish and stubborn sheep.

Ecclesiastes 9:13-10:20 - The Uncanny Popularity of Foolishness
We often jump into a situation without thinking it all the way through and as a result we inflict a lot of unnecessary pain on ourselves. King Solomon reminds us that wisdom is difficult to find and often unappreciated but it is supremely valuable and worth the effort required to obtain it. He reminds us to work hard, respect our bosses and leaders, and work smart as well as hard. We should carefully consider and weigh our options and pray for wisdom from God so that our lives do not end up being a warning for others to not do what we have done.
