Love God Greatly: EcclesiastesSample

SOAP – Ecclesiastes 4:6; Solomon observes the violence and suffering that takes place on earth and envies the dead. He also notes that it is the ambition in the world that creates envy. He concludes that it is better to have few possessions with peace than to have many with worry and stress. Even though believers live in a fallen world, God promises us His peace and His love in the midst of painful and chaotic circumstances. We can be content no matter what we go through knowing that this earth is not our home. We have hope in an eternity ahead of us in Heaven free of sin, pain, sorrow, and tears.
