Ecclesiastes, The Preacher

I finished reading Ecclesiastes this morning. As I thought over what I read it seemed to me that that is what I am living right now—the vanity and futility of everyday life. Yet there is hope, even in this book. It is the hope that is to be found in faithful obedience. My prayer for myself, and for all who might read this, is that we would be able to fill our lives with faithful obedience to the Word of God.
