Most of us think of life as a race to run, a mountain to climb, a challenge to meet or an obstacle to overcome. With grim determination we set out to do battle with the forces arrayed against us. Given that mindset, is it any wonder that while we may achieve success, we seldom experience fulfillment? To live with meaning, life must be seen as a gift from God to be received with thanksgiving and lived with joy.
“…to accept his lot and be happy in his work – this is a gift of God.”
— Ecclesiastes 5:19
Lord Jesus don’t let the world system and the hectic demands of living blind us to life’s best. Remind us that life is found not in the accumulation of things but in the riches of our relationships with family and friends and most especially in our relationship with You. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
