Contrasts....
This morning it was "ironic" to read these two conflicting passages...from meaninglessness to total companionship...
One giving the hopelessness we have without the True Companion which we can have in the everlasting Father, Son and Holy Spirit...
Hope and meaning versus hopelessness and meaninglessness...companionship versus aloneness...joy versus sorrow...
Comfort versus inner pain...foolish versus wisdom...
What a choice!!! Thank YOU that you give hope when life seems meaningless...You are there...
Ecclesiastes 1:2, 16-17 “Meaningless! Meaningless!” says the Teacher. “Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless.”
Listen, my son! Listen, son of my womb! Listen, my son, the answer to my prayers!
I said to myself, “Look, I have increased in wisdom more than anyone who has ruled over Jerusalem before me; I have experienced much of wisdom and knowledge.” Then I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom, and also of madness and folly, but I learned that this, too, is a chasing after the wind.
"June 4 I AM YOUR JOY! Let these words reverberate in your mind and sink into your innermost being. I—your Companion who will never leave you—am a boundless source of Joy. If you really believe this, you can rest in the truth that every day of your life is a good day. So refuse to use the label “a bad day,” even when you’re struggling deeply. Your circumstances may indeed be very hard, but I am nonetheless with you, holding you by your right hand. There is good to be found in this day—and every day—because of My constant Presence and steadfast Love."
Deuteronomy 31:8 The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
