Well... Hello there :)
I had no idea that it was so easy to get to my blog.. Duh!!
I have been a lazy bum who uses the excuse of doing something useful to get out of not writing a thing here. All that is about to change, my friend..
Gosh.. i have so many things to say but where to begin? Lemme begin with what's on my mind at the moment.. That's a great place to start right?
In the campus that i live on, we have a prayer meeting of my community every Friday where we share our thoughts and problems/happiness and pray together. We have songs sung and Bible passages read out and sometimes, people are assigned to share a few thoughts on the Bible, their life or whatever they feel is appropriate.. It's my turn to share my thoughts tomorrow and i have to say i have had a whole week to think about what i wanted to say... And i am such a procrastinator :p i have an idea of what i wanna say but i have not written it down yet.. SO here goes...
I wanted to talk about Ecclesiastes... You know.. the book (supposedly) by King Solomon, the wisest king who ever lived.. Well, it has twelve chapters and the refrain throughout the book is that everything is "meaningless". When one first reads the book of Ecclesiastes, he/she might feel that the world is a hopeless place to live.. I mean, here is King Solomon, a great and wonderful king telling everyone that everything is meaningless.. He himself mentions that he had everything that a man could ever desire.. He did not waste his time in procuring whatever his eyes desired, yet he did not find any satisfaction.. At the end of the day.. it all boils down to God, the Almighty.. You can have whatever you want and try to satisfy your hunger, your needs, your cravings and what-nots but at the end of the day, you are going to die.. It does not matter whether you are rich or poor, handsome or ugly, learned or ignorant.. the same fate awaits you.. Live life to the fullest but keep in mind that God will judge you in the end..
There is this phrase that i really like..
3:11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
This is the King James Version...
So.. this part of the Bible is a part that i really like and which i wanna share tomorrow (God willing).. Let's hope i don't bungle it up...
This is me signing off.. Hoping that i will be more regular on my blog
