What do people really get for all their hard work? (NLT) 10 I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. 12 I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. 13 That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God. (NIV)
What do you really get for all your hard work? Do you really “get ahead?”
Can we feel the burden? It’s there.
Success, fame, possessions, the good life? The burden remains.
Where is the real, true, enduring beauty in human existence?
Eternity.
The beauty is found in forever. You say, “I can’t do forever, it’s not in me.”
Did you read? God has set eternity in every heart.
Eternity is original human equipment. Standard in every heart.
Eternity is your original heart’s desire.
Unlike earthly hard work stuff. Eternity’s beauty forever.
