What if?

What if there was only one small section of scripture?  What if it was this selection from Ecclesiastes chapter 3?  What would the world be like, What would theology be like, if this was all we had to go on?

Here is the passage...

I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live.
That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God.

Eccl 3:12-13

Think about it...  nothing better!

pursuing happiness

doing good to others

eating and drinking

finding satisfaction in work

and all of it is a gift from God.

No need for wars.  No need for hatred.  No need for denominational battles.  No arguments over who is in and who is out.

happiness and doing good.

living and loving.

All of it, a gift from God.

Not a bad way to look at life.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
