"so go ahead. eat your food with joy, and drink your wine with a happy heart, for God approves of this! wear fine clothes, with a splash of cologne! live happily with the woman you love through all the meaningless days of life that God has given you under the sun. the wife God gives you is your reward for all your earthly toil. whatever you do, do it well. for when you go to the grave, there will be no work or planning or knowledge or wisdom."
[ecclesiastes 9:7-10, new living translation.]
this passage makes my heart so happy. how sweet is it that the Bible encourages us to enjoy life and live it to the fullest, but to also understand that our time here is really just a little layover on our way to heaven? it's light, encouraging, and puts everything into perspective. happy valentine's day, sweet friends. know that I love you for all that you are and all that you've yet to be.
