When even a Preacher says 'All is vain, empty, and transitory'. ...Now that is depressing!
-your job ends, you are fired, your children turn on you, your spouse dies,
your spouse cheats, church people seem to be just as political as everyone else,
your health fails, you get cancer, people you love make bad decisions,(.......insert yours here)
But, because this preacher is wise, he teaches others knowledge!
This preacher says that the foundation of all happiness, and the ability to deal with all events in your life comes from this:
AFTER EVERYTHING, THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS IS TO REVERE AND WORSHIP GOD.
Know that GOD IS. You don't know him? Pray to know Him, or pray to know Him more!
Keep His commandments. Pray to love Him more.
Pray to have greater faith in HIM!
After chasing (and attaining!!) everything possible- (fame, sex, wealth, food) this preacher comes to the knowledge that:
what makes a good life is that-
A person, enjoys their work,
and walks humbly with God.
Let me grow to love you more,
know you more,
and have greater faith in you.

Don't give up!
'If you watch the wind and wait for all conditions to be right, you will not sow. If you watch the weather and wait for all conditions to be favorable, you will not reap......You don't know the work of God."
Don't live in fear - the What if's! Keep trying, do what it is that you really are
hoping to achieve. What is your dream, or dreams? Don't wait until the money is right, the health is right, the circumstances are right. If you really want to achieve something...START NOW! Go for your dreams!
So, in the morning continue to sow your seed, and in the evening keep working. ... because you don't know what will prosper! Whether this or that, or whether BOTH alike will prosper!
Keep doing what you are trying to do! Don't give up even though you don't see anything fantastic happening. Sometimes you get tired and don't see results. But keep at it! You don't know when the hours of loving labor will take off and soar beyond what you could imagine!
Some times we get bogged down in the daily grind.
We don't even realize what a wonderful result is coming.
....in your job, in child rearing, in loving.... SO DON't GIVE UP!!!
