What is the Meaning of Life?

Too often in life, we strive to find something in this world to fill our hearts with the joy and peace that can only be found in Christ alone. Solomon knew well what our human life is like. He frustrated himself with working endlessly for things that fall apart. He chased after academic pursuits and found no satisfaction in them, either. Nor did he hold back from building an empire and indulging in pleasure. Simply "upgrading" our lives will not bring satisfaction. And everything in our lives will be left behind us when we die, and we'll have zero control over them. Only Christ can ever satisfy our souls! We can thank Him and find simple joy in the good gifts He's given us. Stop striving, and receive joy from His hands! Seek after His Kingdom, not a vain empire of your own.
