Enjoy What Comes Your Way

                                          Ecclesiastes 3:13
                    "And also that every man should eat and drink,
                               and enjoy the good of all his labor,
                                         it is the gift of God."


        The Scriptures tell us that, every man should eat and drink... it is the gift of God. This enforces and intensifies the statement in the verse 3:12; not only the power to "do good," but even to enjoy what comes in his way that is "from the hand of God" (Ref. Eccl. 2:24), When we pray for our daily bread, we also ask for ability to take, assimilate, and profit by the supports and comforts afforded to us. "The gift of the Lord remaineth with the godly, and his favor bringeth prosperity for ever."
        Now that all sounds good however; we must look deeper into what God is telling us. I believe that a lot of us have missed used Scripture in God's Word about how we go about enjoying the bounty that God has given us. I was guilty myself many times in the past; just like the heathens of today. Even during the Biblical day's; some Christians had  problems turning from their old lifestyles.
       What I am saying is, this verse "enjoy the good of all your labor it is a gift from God," these 13 words are the main point of that whole scripture. The Scripture is about moral judgement on our part to do good in all things, because what we have and enjoy is because of God! So what is spoken of here, is the appreciation of the innocent pleasures which the love of God offers to those who live in accordance with the laws of their higher nature, and "Glorify Our God"
        Amen!!
