All is vanity

by David Long

Read Ecclesiastes 1:2. The Preacher declared, "all is vanity." One could read the book of Ecclesiastes and become very discouraged, disappointed and despaired of life. One would think that life is not worth living. But keep in mind that "things under the sun" are under consideration and they are shown to be inadequate to satisfy or meet man's greatest need and that is a right relationship with God. The pursuit of happiness without God is vanity. On this side of the cross the only life that matters is the Christian life (Acts 26:28-29). Any other way of living and "all is vanity."
