So I commend the enjoyment of life, because there is nothing better for a person under the sun than to eat and drink and be glad. Then joy will accompany them in their toil all the days of the life God has given them under the sun.
Ecclesiastes 8:15, NIV
One of the biggest surprises in studying Ecclesiastes is noticing how many times this book tells us to enjoy life. The Lord has given us so many blessings during our lifespan! It’s a shame to miss them. He hasn’t called us to a morbid existence. We may never have a perfect day, and world events will always be chaotic. But God wants us to eat and drink and be glad in Him.
