Wisdom For Today

What are the best things you can do today?
(Ecclesiastes 2:24 ESV) There is nothing better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God,

(Ecclesiastes 3:12 ESV) I perceived that there is nothing better for them than to be joyful and to do good as long as they live;

(Ecclesiastes 3:22 ESV) So I saw that there is nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his work, for that is his lot. Who can bring him to see what will be after him?

What is God's Gift To Man
(Ecclesiastes 3:13 ESV) also that everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil--this is God's gift to man.

(Ecclesiastes 5:19 ESV) Everyone also to whom God has given wealth and possessions and power to enjoy them, and to accept his lot and rejoice in his toil--this is the gift of God.

Okay, you've managed to bait me. Vanity of Vanities! Quoting Ecclesiastes verses out of context is sheer Vanity! Of course you are a Southern Baptist and there is Nothing New under the Sun.
