Life's full meaning must come from life's Author, and he has told us what it is: to revere and obey him.
There is no such thing as a long full life outside of an intimate relationship with God. The lean days of mortality will eventually consume every earthly gain—the only way to build a life of lasting substance is to remember your Creator today.
The Teacher begins to pull all this tearing down of life philosophies into a real conclusion of how we should live in this world. Enjoy your life under the sun with a light heart as a fleeting gift from God, without clinging too tightly to this world or forgetting your accountability to Him as you live for eternity.
Because we cannot control or comprehend God's providence we should not be overconfident, over-cautious, or wait for certainty. Instead, we should do good broadly, give generously, and work diligently, humbly trusting God to provide for us and through us.
A Return to Biblical Repentance In Part 1 Psalm 51:1-9, pardon and cleansing, dealt with this necessity, that David, a believer and every human being needs. Part 2 Psalm 51:10-19 shows David, and we as well, also need an inward renewal, the creation of new heart and a steadfast spirit. The desire and appealing to God for these, show our repentance is genuine repentance.
Psalm 51 is the prayer of a man who is repenting of his sin. But we must remember that what we have in this Psalm is not simply the thoughts of David, rather, this is a sample of human repentance as it is given under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. God is using David's experience to illuminate what repentance looks like, for the benefit of believers throughout the ages.

Following Jesus isn't about looking perfect on the outside or just going through the motions. Real spiritual growth happens from the inside out, creating a life that is noticeable to others, has lasting consequences, grows in its own timing, and multiplies in amazing ways. By clearing away life's distractions, we can focus on simply sharing God's love and trusting Him to handle the results.
There is much in this life that produces a sense of pointless frustration and helplessness, but we add to our sorrows through foolishness. Wisdom teaches us to accept the order God has established, to be diligent and thoughtful in our work, to govern our appetites, and to keep careful guard over what we say.
