Ecclesiastes 5. All is vanity: Enjoying the fruits of His creation.

Rev. Christopher Maronde, pastor of St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bingen, IN joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Ecclesiastes 5.

God calls us to humility, faith, and contentment. Contentment so that we do not feel the need to speak words we are not called to speak. Contentment to not think that possessions will bring us joy. Contentment to enjoy the gifts that He gives (home, spouse, family, church, possessions, and forgiveness in Christ). Eat, drink, and find enjoyment in all that He has provided---this is the gift of God. “Lord God, grant us humility, fill us with faith, and provide contentment in Christ. Thank You for providing all that we need on the cross and bring us back to You for the peace that surpasses all understanding. In Christ, Amen”
