Life Is Useful

From www.newtimes.co.rw

All is meaningless--says the Teacher--meaningless, meaningless!

What profit is there for a man in all his work for which he toils under the sun?

A generation goes, a generation comes and the earth remains forever.  The sun rises, the sun sets, hastening towards the place where it again rises.  Blowing to the south, turning to the north, the wind goes round and round and after all its round it has to blow again.

All rivers go to the sea but the sea is not full; to the place where the rivers come from, there they return again.

All words become weary and speech comes to an end, but the eye has never seen enough nor the ear heard too much.

What has happened before will happen again; what has been done before will be done again: thjere is nothing new under the sun.

If they say to you, "See, it's new!" know that it has already been centuries earlier.

There is no remembrance of ancient people, and thos to come will not be remembered by those who follow them.

Ecclesiastes 1:2-11

"Dearest God, our time on earth is short.  Help us to live wisely and obey Your purpose for us that we may find meaning in life.  Amen."
