The teacher who wrote the book of Ecclesiastes sets forth many difficult truths. I believe one of the hardest to accept is chapter 7 verse 14: God has created both prosperity and adversity. I think it likely that he not only made both he controls both. That is why the verse ends with the thought that no one understands the future. Our faith in God can not exclude that sorrows may enter our lives for a time or as a life-long companIon. Neither can our faith limit God to only bring rebuke and punishment.
