Ecclesiastes 1 – 6

Passage

Solomon was a wise, wealthy and powerful king over Israel, during the height of its history. He wrote this book toward the end of his life as a retrospective, looking back on what he had done in life. In this text we see that, although he had many accomplishments and experiences, it was all meaningless compared to what God had done.

Regardless of what he could do with his wealth, power and wisdom, it is the love of God that has lasting results. the commandment God has given us is to love God first with everything in our being. Only then can we love our neighbor.

Let us remember in this season when God loved us so much He gave us His Son as a baby in a manger. So that He would provide salvation for all through His sacrifice.
