- Living A Balanced Life (Part 2 of 3)
Solomon describes his diligent search for wisdom and discovers the limitations of human understanding. Though God made man upright, mankind has corrupted itself and pursued many evil devices. True wisdom and righteousness are rare, and only God’s revelation explains why all have gone astray. - Living A Balanced Life (Part 1 of 3)Solomon examines the search for balance in life and warns against the worldly approach of compromising between righteousness and wickedness. True balance is not found in taking a little from both sides, but in fearing God, pursuing wisdom, and entrusting ourselves to Him.
- Allowing Death, Sorrow, and Adversity to Teach Us (Part 3 of 3)“Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked?” Solomon reminds us that both the day of prosperity and the day of adversity are appointed by God. Rather than resisting His sovereign will, we are called to submit to Him and find our joy and peace in Christ. In a world that prefers folly to wisdom, believers are to live according to the wisdom that comes from above.
- Allowing Death, Sorrow, and Adversity to Teach UsSolomon teaches that adversity and difficulty reveal whether a person will respond with wisdom or folly. The wise exercise self-control under oppression, are patient and humble in uncertain situations, are “slow to anger,” and learn to live contentedly in the present. Though wealth offers some protection, “wisdom giveth life to them that have it,” and is therefore better than riches.
- Allowing Death, Sorrow, and Adversity to Teach Us (Part 1 of 3)Solomon teaches that “it is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting,” because death causes the living to “lay it to his heart.” The wise seriously consider mortality and the realities of life, while fools distract themselves with laughter and amusement. Likewise, “it is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.”
- Pursuing Wealth Vs Enjoying God’s Gifts (Part 3 of 3)Solomon teaches that riches and wealth do not satisfy because they cannot satisfy. Wealth is uncertain and cannot be carried beyond death, and the pursuit of it only increases vanity and anxiety. Instead, life is to be enjoyed as a gift from God, who gives food, drink, work, and the ability to rejoice in them. “Full and ultimate satisfaction is to be found only in the Son of God.”
