Ecclesiastes 4
Inspired thots
How interesting to note king Solomon's discovery about work and toil! Finally, the answer to his despair...
the motivation of all work and toil is... E N V Y. (v4)
Envy is discontentment over what one has when comparing with another. Hence, it becomes a motivator to perform better in order to achieve the same status of those who are envied. It is indeed aptly mentioned that this is a STRIVING AFTER THE WIND; it is Vanity as own strength is exercised to pursue what the heart desires rather than enjoy what God blesses.
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)
