Today I would like to look at Ecclesiastes 1 verse 12 to 14

12)I, the Teacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem.
13)I applied my mind to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under the heavens. What a heavy burden God has laid on mankind!
14)I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.

Here the wise king Solomon, is talking:
He says we are chasing after wind, all the things we are chasing comes to nothing. Happiness is not found in possessions, but is found in a good relationship with God, as He is the only one who knows what is best for us.

I hope you have a wonderful day.
Soli Deo Gloria

Possessions can only give you temporary pleasure. You can get temporary pleasure from alcohol, but genuine and lasting pleasure comes from God.

Only God can give true fulfillment in life. Solomon had all the world could offer, all the money and fame, but yet true peace and contentment comes From God alone.

Amen, thank you so much for the very nice comment.

Solomon was the richest man that ever lived. Despite all his wealth, he still said there is no satisfaction in them. Wealth can never satisfy, only God can.

Thank you so much for the very nice comment.

True happiness is found in our relationship with God. True happiness comes from God, and not from possessions

Amen, Thank you so much for the very nice comment.

Thank you @rynow for this word today I am very grateful for the opportunity to be a part of today's message. Am blessed. Happy Sunday.

You are welcome, thank you so much for the very nice comment.

So true. Not just that God knows what's best for us, but He wants what's best for us. He loves us somuch.

Amen!

So true @rynow. This is a word we need today, in a day where there is so much craving for material things. We need to know God is the source of what we are looking for.

Amen, thank you so much for the very nice comment.

Lovely post. Only God knows the best in our life. Let's focus on Him and not on money.

Amen, thank you so much for the very nice comment.

'' I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.''

Solomon had experienced all the things we are running after, and yet he did not get happiness from them. No amount of money van give true joy. It's your walk with God that gives joy.

Amen, nicely said.

A nice scripture to read thanks for explaining it

Thank you so much for the very nice comment.

Great post,only God can give happiness thank you @rynow

Amen, thank you so much for the very nice comment.

There is more joy in pursuing less than can be found in pursuing more. In many ways, this is a message that we already know to be true. Thank you @rynow

Thank you so much for the very nice comment.

Our life is significant. Far more than success, our hearts desire significance because significance lasts forever. On the other hand, possessions are temporal. They perish, spoil, and fade. And most of them, by design. Thanks a lot. I was blessed

Thank you so much for the very nice comment.

This publication is really special. Thank you so much for your participation. I appreciate your great efforts. @rynow

You are welcome, thank you so much for the kind words.

i agree with you @rynow! even the bible says...seek first the kingdom of God and every other thing will be added onto you. As a christian the kingdom of God is our main aim.

Amen, thank you so much for the very nice comment.

you're welcome @rynow! I pray God give us more grace to carry out His word to all steemians.

You are welcome, thank you so much for the very nice comment.

Happiness is not found in possessions, the things we are chasing comes to nothing. Thanks for sharing.

Amen, thank you so much for the very nice comment.

The subtle difference between chasing the right things versus the wrong things is the why behind it.

When you’re focused on the outside - what others think of you - you’re designing your life for the judgment of others. Your motivation is what others think of you.

When you do this, you’ll always be behind the eight ball on true happiness and fulfillment.

Yes, we must not satisfy the world, but we must do what God wants us to do.

Exactly. God give you more joy @rynow. Joy, happiness, and fulfillment are found in the invisible things of life: love, hope, peace, and relationships. And they are not on sale at your local department store. Stop looking for them there. People who live their lives in pursuit of possessions are never content. They always desire newer, faster, or bigger because material possessions can never satisfy our deepest heart desires.

You have said it very nicely, thank you so much for the very nice comment.

God Bless You.....Amen

Thank you so much.

Amen. thanks for sharing .

Thank you so much for the nice comment.

Very valuable life lesson that

Happiness is not found in possessions, but is found in a good relationship with God.

Our relationship with God is the vertical line and our relationship with others the horizontal line forming a cross. That is all that has value and is why I love this verses in Ecclesiastes:

Go, eat your bread with joy,
And drink your wine with a merry heart;
For God has already accepted your works.
8 Let your garments always be white,
And let your head lack no oil.
9 Live joyfully with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain life which He has given you under the sun, all your days of vanity; for that is your portion in life, and in the labor which you perform under the sun.

Thank you @rynow for sharing this message. God bless on this Sunday!

Amen, thank you so much for the great comment.

What a beautiful verse. If we spend our time understanding and forming good relations with, our life will definitely change for the better.

Thank you so much for the very nice comment.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Most people are so focused on the outside world, and they’re terrified of turning that gaze inward to see who they really are.

But, when you take the time to get to know what you truly want in life based on who you truly are, that’s when the magic happens.
God bless you @rynow.

Thank you so much for the very nice comment.

I couldnt agree more. You made so much pointd
Yes, it’s tough to hold up the mirror and do the work necessary to make those shifts, but that’s the process.

If you don’t want to deal with what you're feeling and figure out what's truly missing, you'll waste your life looking for a quick fix. You will end up chase something that is unattainable for the rest of your life.

Thank you so much for the very nice comment.

Reading God's word......feeling better ....thank you @rynow

You are welcome, I am glad that God's Word made you feel better.

A great reminder that true happiness, like joy, is fulfillment. Possessions alone don't bring fulfillment, but are, like the verse says, "a chasing after the wind."

Amen, thank you so much for the very nice comment.

It’s just that, since the day we were born, we have been told something different. We have been told that possessions equal joy. And because we have heard that message so many times and from so many angles, we have begun to believe it. As a result, we spend our lives working long hours to make good money so that we can buy nice stuff.

But when we again hear the simple message that there is more joy in pursuing less than can be found in pursuing more, it rings true in our hearts… because deep down, we already know it to be true. We know that possessions don’t equal joy. And we know that our life is far too valuable to waste chasing them

Amen, very well said!!

We’re all chasing something.

But, sadly, most people are spending their lives chasing the wrong things.

Agreed!!

he knows better than us for sure he will help us along the journey :)

Amen, thank you so much for the very nice comment.

Amen:)
Thanks @rynow

But, in reality, living your life according to what others think about you is just a balm to soothe your deep insecurities. Thid is a beautiful passage. Thanks for sharing
