I’ve been reading these chapters late in the evening without a means to passing on the record. I noticed that in chapter 2 of this book, the teacher, probably Solomon, points out that the purpose of out toilsome labor is to enjoy the fruits of our work, while giving God the thanks for their provisions, and the wisdom and greatness to give us work to enjoy. Neither work, nor gain, nor anything is to receive our worship. Nor should any of them be the foundation of our self-worth. But God has called us to toil, and partake of the fruits of that toil.
These are all short passages, so I’ve take about 5 minutes a night to read them.
