Introduction
The Philosopher shares his thoughts about making rash promises to God and about the uselessness of acquiring material riches. The reading concludes with a summation of what the Philosopher has learned about life.
Today’s Scripture Reading
Ecclesiastes 5:1-20
Today’s Key Verse: Ecclesiastes 5:19b
We should be grateful and enjoy what we have worked for. It is a gift from God.
Reflect
What are your thoughts about the Philosopher’s view on making promises (verses 1-7)? Is this good advice? Why or why not? Have you ever made a rash promise to God? If so, what were the circumstances and what was the result? What does the Philosopher say about acquiring money (verses 10-17)? Do you agree with him? Why or why not? Reread verses 18-20 which provide a summation of the Philosopher’s thoughts. Does his thinking resonate with you? Why or why not?
Pray
Lord God, I thank you for the ways in which you have blessed my life. You are the source of all good gifts. In times of joy and sorrow, you are with me. You are the source of true happiness and comfort, and I trust in your promises. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those who are victims of broken promises
