Lazaroo – Friday, July 16, 2010
Jul 16, 2010 I Lazaroo.
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with a heart of trust-filled worship:
“I devoted myself to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under heaven.”
(Ecclesiastes 1:13)
It’s not surprising that a man of Solomon’s caliber would devote himself to one or two fields of study.
But a study of “all” that is done under heaven?
Unimaginable.
What made him think he could successfully tackle such a task, Jesus?
Was it the fact that You blessed him with more wisdom than anyone before or after him – until You Yourself walked this earth as the promised Messiah?
In any case, his experiment was a failure.
Not only was he unable to grasp everything You do under heaven
but the tiny piece he explored
baffled and depressed him so much that he pronounced it:
“Meaningless! Meaningless!”
“Everything is meaningless!”
But it isn’t.
Not to You.
Instead…
Your handiwork inspires me to fall on my face in utter amazement…
and worship.

Dear George: I like you too wonderful if Soloman, the wisest man in the world went to heaven, I too, search the scriptures and nothing on this topic was found. I choose
Jul 16, 2010, 2:43 pmto believe that God forgiveness endures forever. I think
we should always want to believe the positive of a person
until the “WORD” of the Lord says something diffrent!
What if this were you or I ,wouldn’t we want others to think
positive about God’s forgivenss for us. Judgement for others we must be REAL careful about. Again, Why can’t
we think positive about Soloman’s forgiveness from God?
