"There is nothing better for mortals than to eat and drink, and find enjoyment in their toil." (v. 24)When I was younger and even throughout college, I distinctly a number of occasions where someone would ask me why I was always smiling. I frequently have a smile plastered on my face and like to see the joys in life, even in harder times. So I am glad that the author of Ecclesiastes has found joy in some things and hasn't exactly called everything in life worthless!! The author writes that those who make God happy make themselves happy and those that don't end up serving those that do.
I really hope that when I am old and gray, I can recall all the pleasure I had in putting smiles on God's face!
