Morning with Ebenezer

THE EMPTINESS OF THIS LIFE

The words of the Teacher, son of David, king in Jerusalem:

 “Meaningless! Meaningless!”

    says the Teacher.

“Utterly meaningless!

    Everything is meaningless.”

Ecclesiastes 1:1-2 NIV

You thought the time you will finish your education, you will be the happiest person ever lived. The time came and it was just like other normal days. You thought if you will get a woman or man of your dreams nothing else will matter, you will be having all what you ever wanted in life. That woman or man came into the picture but still things seem to be the same.

You prayed and worked hard to get a job of your dreams, and a position which you always wanted to have but when you got there still it seems not that special as you once thought. There are those who got to live their dreams, having dream house, car, job, and life but yet there is huge emptiness inside of them.

King Solomon got all that the man would ever dream, wisdom, great riches, authority, fame,700 wives and 300 concubines yet at the end all of those things were meaningless to Him. He came to realize that materials things and the fame of this world will never satisfy the within emptiness of human soul. There have to be something more than this world can offer, there should be something supernatural than that the carnal mind can perceive.

This morning, God wants you to know that nothing can fill the emptiness of your soul but Jesus alone. I have met people who did not know the taste of joy for years, their lives were full of sorrow. They thought that nothing good will ever happen for them. They gave up and waited to die though some of them were still young, but the devil made them to feel like there is nothing left for them in this life.

But Jesus! Jesus came into the picture. They heard about this Nazarene man who came to change the history of this world. Their lives changed, the got the meaning of life. Their emptiness were filled by the presence of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Their lives as never been so good! Their songs of sorrow became songs of praise. Jesus for them is the meaning of life, Jesus for me is the meaning of life.

Start your day with joy, refuse to be excluded from the blessing which is found in the house of the Lord today. Go to His house with expectation, praise Him as never before. Remember is the only one who can give us the proper meaning of life, reason to live and positive attitude no matter what the life will bring forth.
