Thoughts from Ecclesiastes

Ecclesiastes 7:1-9; 18 Read the whole book of Ecclesiastes.

•A good reputation is more valuable than the most expensive perfume. In the same way, the day we die is better than the day we are born.

•It is better to spend your time at funerals than at festivals. For we are going to die and you-me-we should think about it while there is still time. V. 3 Sorrow is better than laughter, for sadness has a refining influence on us. V. 4 A wise person thinks much about death, while the fool thinks only about having a good time now.

V.12 People can never predict when hard times might come. Like fish in a net or birds in a snare, people are often caught by sudden tragedy. V. 15 So I recommend having fun, because there’s nothing better for people to do in this world than that way they will experience some happiness along with all hard work God gives them/us.

V. 14 Enjoy prosperity while you can, but when hard times strike, realize that both come from God. That way you-me-us will realize that nothing is certain in this life. V. 15 In this meaningless life, I have seen everything, including the fact that some good people die young and some wicked people live on and on. V. 16 So don’t be too good or too wise! Why destroy yourself? On the other hand, don’t be a fool. Why should you die before your-our-time? So let us try to walk a middle course—but those who fear God will succeed either way.

There is not a single person in all the earth who is always good and never sins; remember last month I told you to free us from sin. But we got to let him in, Oh he is still standing at the door knocking waiting to come in our Hearts. He is still waiting for his people who are called by his name to humble ourselves seek his face pray to him so we can turn from our wicked ways so the land can be healed. He is not calling on the world he is still waiting on his people to some.

Colossians 2:8-23

Don’t let anyone lead you astray with empty philosophy high-sounding nonsense that comes from human thinking and from the evil powers of this world: and not from Christ.

For in—For in Christ know the work in Christ the fullness of God lives in a human body. And you-me-we are complete through our union with Christ. He is the Lord over every ruler and authority in the universe.

Galatians 5:1 says

So Christ has really set us free now make sure that we stay free, and don’t get tied up again in slavery to the law. What are you saying the laws are God. Search the Book of God and see can you find me and I can find you. That’s Good News. It will help us all. From idol talk.

Because Ephesians 2:1-22

Once you-me-we [Believers] were dead, Doomed forever because of your many sins. V. 2 You-me used to live just like the rest of the world full of sin, obeying Satan and some of us still is. If you have been in the church building, and not the church which Christ died, for we are still dead, Doomed forever.

Satan the mighty prince of the air. He is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God. V. 3 All of us used to live that way following the passions and desires of our evil Nature. We were born with an evil nature and we are under God’s anchor just like everyone else. V. 4 [But God] He is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much v. 5 that even while we were dead in our sins, He gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead.

(It is only by God’s special favor that you/me have been saved!) Not by the mouth or snake talk. Remember in the pastor’s study I was allowed to write about snake talk, he was talking to Eve then and still to us now, the flesh is at war against the spirit.

James 1:-12 says

Blessed is the man that endured temptation; for when he is tired he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that Love him. The believer finds strength to overcome temptation and endure trials, through the Love of God. Paul said, “We glory in tribulations also.” The question is, do we today glory in the tribulations? We can, only if the Love of God is shed abroad in our Hearts by the Holy Spirit.

Without the Love of God in the believers heart, trials can cause us to become bitter and critical and we could lose the “Crown of Life.” I was saying something to a pastor about this but the word found me. Brothers and sisters listen, when we have given our life to God and they astray it is our Job to restore them back in the family with your Holy Love oh God.

Read Psalms 64; Proverbs 24 He who has learned how to pray has learned the greatest secret of a Holy and A Happy Life.
