Everything Is Meaningless - What Are You Working For?
Ever pondered the question, "What are we working for?" Join us as we grapple with this profound question, seeking wisdom from the book of Ecclesiastes. We'll discover that the real purpose of work goes beyond mere survival or pursuit of success - it's about pleasing God, who generously gifts us wisdom, knowledge, and joy.
Building on Solomon's wisdom, we'll confront the illusion of work and the hard truth that our efforts sometimes yield unexpected outcomes. We’ll discuss the frustration of leaving a legacy and the struggle of finding purpose beyond work, ultimately realizing that our identities should be rooted not in our jobs but in Jesus Christ himself. We'll dig deeper into the fascinating lives of Solomon and Blaise Pascal, exploring how they understood and embraced the gift of living in the present moment, even amid the harshest of life's trials.
As we wrap up, we'll delve into the idea of finding joy in pleasing the Lord. Inspired by Solomon's teachings and motivated by 1 Corinthians 15, we'll remind you that your labor is never in vain when it is done for the Lord. So, gear up for an enlightening conversation that challenges your perception of work, redefines legacy, and nudges you to find joy in your day-to-day work while staying focused on living for God in the present. It's time to unearth the real meaning and purpose of work as we journey together in this thought-provoking sermon.
