Solomon was the wisest man in the world. And the book of
Ecclesiastes is the story of his quest for true, lasting satisfaction. He experienced
all life has to offer. And he wore himself out studying. But he said it was all
just chasing the wind. And at the end of his journey, he says – all has been
heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of
man.
What Solomon discovered was that the things of this life are more meaningful with God. And yet, those things can never be enough to fully satisfy the redeemed soul. Why? Because your eternal soul hears the eternal call of your eternal savior from your eternal home. But Jesus has made his home, in believers. And in Matthew 5:6, Jesus says, “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.” May your heart find its home in Christ. Amen.
