Here is the listening guide from yesterday. I'm continuing my summer poetry series on Ecclesiastes.
Ecclesiastes 7: 8 - 22
1. Seeing a project through takes hard work and patience, but is is worth it.
2. We should be quick to listen, but slow to speak and slow to become angry. It is difficult to live a righteous life if we are consumed with anger. James 1: 19, 20
3. The idea that the "old days" were better may be more an illusion than reality. Build on the past, plan for the future, but live for today. Matthew 6:34
4. God is in control in good times and bad, and uses every circumstance for our own good. Romans 8:28
5. Don't be so heavenly minded that you are no earthly good. Luke 10:31. God does not want us to sin, but we should realize we are capable of it.
6. In life, we should always seek a balance. But this doesn't mean be lukewarm. Revelation 3:15
