    One of God’s purposes for our lives is that we enjoy them., but it is not the ONLY purpose. He wants to deepen us, and that comes not so much from joy as it does facing the sober realities of life. Facing life’s realities opens us up to receive wisdom,

    The difference between living and existing can often be traced to one’s philosophy of life. The God-given philosophy of life involves many aspects, but today I’d like to summarize part of that philosphy through three "Remember" statements.

    based on 27 ratings

    Slightly sarcastic view of "the good old days". Like the scripture, this reminds people to live in the present, and not long for so-called better days of the past.

    Ecclesiastes 7:10 – The Good Old Days? Oh Please! Tonight, instead of looking at a major topic in Ecclesiastes, I am going to look at one verse. It’s a verse that speaks to all of us, no matter how old we are. 7:10. This verse is funny because it so much speaks to who we are, and what we ...read more
