He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end.
I know that nothing is better for them than to rejoice, and to do good in their lives. Ecclesiastes 3:11-12 NKJV.
That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil - this is the gift of God. Ecclesiastes 3:13 NIV.
I've also concluded that whatever God does, that's the way it's going to be, always. No addition, no subtraction. God's done it and that's it.
That's so we'll quit asking questions and simply worship in holy fear. Ecclesiastes 3:14 The Message.
That which is has already been, and what is to be has already been; and God requires an account of what is past. Ecclesiastes 3:15 NKJV.
The Teacher reveals the hand of God in all things, even though there will be times when we may not understand nor be able to handle the cards that life deals us.
In the face of despair; and the last resort is between walking away (from a relationship, situation, or even life), and surrendering completely to a strong and loving God;
I pray that we would choose the latter.
Living is hard enough. No one is born equipped to deal with every situation in life. Despite our intentions and efforts, some things are just beyond us.
And if we insist on carrying these burdens by ourselves, they will be the death of us, both literally and spiritually. We can either get busy living or we can get busy dying.
The choice is ours. It is never too late, not with God. He is always there to receive us when we run to Him. And when we do so, we will find ourselves breathing and alive again.
God is in control and He is for justice, righteousness and wholeness, even though things around us may appear otherwise.
Through every valley of shadow of death, in the midst of every storm, in the depth of hopelessness; choosing to trust GOD and let GOD be God, and He will give us rest for our souls.
"So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honour. Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you. 1 Peter 5:6-7 NLT.
My twin and I always say this every year before the yearend marathon, "If God wills, we will run another race". This one is for you, mate. I love you and I am very proud of you.
