Pastor Kevin continues in Ecclesiastes, reminding us that Solomon separates life “under the sun” (life on earth) from eternity. In chapter 3, we see that God controls time and seasons, not us—so wisdom learns to live in the “now” and trust God’s timing. Solomon concludes that contentment is found in gratitude, honest work, and enjoying God’s daily gifts.

In chapter 4, Solomon wrestles with the injustices and oppression of a fallen world, but points to the truth that God will judge righteously in His time. The study closes by stressing the value of relationships (two are better than one) and warning against chasing success while neglecting what truly matters.

3 Main Takeaways:

1. Time belongs to God—learn to live faithfully in the present.

2. Contentment is a gift—enjoy God’s provision with gratitude.

3. Life isn’t always fair “under the sun,” but God will make all things right—and relationships matter.
