After Ecclesiastes 3:9-15
We ask
these questions, like
what’s the
point?, because
we have
eternity inserted
from the beginning,
inserted
into our
hearts, it’s there,
and it
brings doubts
and fears
and questions,
always
questions, and
many of
us, or most of us,
reject it
because
we do not
understand it,
we don’t
get this
alpha and
omega stuff,
we just
don’t, and so
we reach
for happiness
or what we
think it is
and it
takes the place
of
eternity, the place
of wisdom,
the place
of
character. But we confuse
the gift
with the giver,
we revere
the gift not
the giver,
and it is the history
of
humanity until history
is pounded
with nails.
