Satisfaction


Ecclesiastes 5: 18
Then I realized that it is good and proper for a man to eat and drink, and to find satisfaction in his toilsome labor under the sun during the few days of life God has given him—for this is his lot.

Solomon refers to God as the giver of all gifts.
He even gives God the glory for the job that he had in life.

Not too many folks these days, give God thanks for the chance to work.
Is it possible to find true satisfaction in what you do for a living?
I don’t think God ever meant for us to have drudgery in what we labor for—especially when we consider that all we do, we should do for the glory of God.

Do you bring God glory in your menial, mundane tasks?
Have you found true satisfaction in what you do in life?
Maybe if we did life with God in mind, we’d find that satisfaction we’ve been looking for.

Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones released the song, “I Can’t Get No Satisfaction”, in 1965.
I don’t think the Rolling Stones ever considered God, when they wrote this song.
By what I know of their lifestyles, I don’t think they’ve ever found any satisfaction.

The days of life are few—and God is the giver of all of our days.
Maybe we need to look to Him after all, to find satisfaction in this life…………
