Ecclesiastes 11-12:8
by Robert Krumrey
We've been learning about wise living in the book of Ecclesiastes. Live wisely as one who fears God knowing that there are glitches in the system. Those glitches mean that wisdom has limits, but don't let that discourage you in your pursuit of wisdom. This has been preached in the book several times ad nauseam. And yet there are 2 more chapters to go. The remainder of the book is motivation to embrace wise living. In this text, the writer uses a reflection on death and dying as a pep talk of sorts to motivate you to NOT waste your short life on this earth in folly. Find out what these "lessons from reflecting on death" are and allow them to propel you in your own pursuit of wisdom under the sun.
